Seeing Prince back in 96 at the Capital Ballroom was without a doubt one of my top 5 concerts I've ever been too!
The line wrapped all the way around the building and now parking lot at Nation to get in. Prince played for 3 1/2 hours! 1/2 hour set included Doug E. Fresh with Prince & Co. as backing band! With Larry Graham on bass they jammed out three Sly and the Family Stone tunes as well. For a four hour show total and with the old setup of the club it was truly awesome!
Prince is just an all around genius of a musician…he's as much of a badass on piano as he is on the guitar! :)

I don't feel like playing this list game but I do want to include …
Phil Manzenera (Roxy Music / 801)
Oh yeah, and Dupek, wasn't John Goodsall one of those often session players or with Godley and Cream or Soft Machine or Matching Mole or Brand X? I can't remember and don't feel like researching now. I definitely know his name from some earlier works. Might have worked with Brian Eno or King Crimson.

Jag: Yes, yes & YES!

I should add a coda to the list: Besides no legends, No stiffs either.
Anyone who said Hendrix/Gatton/Bronson/Chunders go to the end of the line.

ALso Phil did guitar work on Eno's solo "pop" albums.

He fell out of favor after he spit in that umpire's face.
