Wasn't a massive fan but I do like some of his songs a lot and he was obviously very talented. RIP Prince.
Bit harsh, I'd have been up there like a rat in a drainpipe given half a chance.

On his last warning
Is this the first time a Prince has died on the Queens birthday?
His music was more relevant to me than that of David Bowie so it seems somewhat more personal, although in reality it is nothing of the sort. RIP the popstar Symbol.
I am just more pleased than I have ever been that I am neither rich nor famous, at least for this year! Think the big one this year is still to come......

I am shocked Prince was an amazing musician, so so talented and luckily I saw him live twice and he really rocked.
Prince, Bowie who next ?

Same. Not a massive fan of either but slightly more affinity with Prince.
Always sad when an influential, creative artist goes.

I was thinking he meant the woman from The Krankies

Sad news indeed because that's no age at all.
Can you explain why he was a genius though please Buzzer?
I'm asking for two reasons.
1) I've never liked his music but have always heard the genius comments. I'm keen to know why it's so or if it's emperors new clothes. I'm assuming he was a multi instrumentalist for starters?
2) If anyone can give me a definitive answer, it's you. I've followed your blog long enough to know that you know your stuff when it comes to music and know how to put it into words.

I think it's when your peers call you that. Fan base alone is probably not sufficient. And they did and will repeat over the next few days in the tributes.

Must admit, the first thing that popped into my head when i read the news was the ribs allegation.

Very good point. I'm sort of imagining a Quincy Jones type of musicianship....i.e complete in every department and massively respected by those in the music business.

This is getting ridiculous. 2016, year of the Grim Reaper. RIP Prince. The Doves Are Crying.
