R.I.P. Prince … One of Miles Davis’ last collaborators. You will be woefully missed …

The only song I hated more than ‘When Doves Cry’ was ‘Purple Rain’. Didn’t mind some of his other stuff, though. Still, sad to see such a talented musician go. I know a lot of fans will miss him.
Prince…
He was a Republican.
Wow. More wisdom from the find mind which wrote: “God should whisper into the Pope’s ears not to meet with politicians on the make” and “Ohio is the state full of frats and parties, stuffed full of nitwits.” Can we please top letting those who haven’t subscribed here post?
How much does it suck to make comments that only wind up disparaging yourself?
