Brooooce does Prince

[Tom Dunlap]

Back in '78-'79 I lived in North Minneapolis. I read an article in the neighborhood newspaper that a local kid had made an album with no one else but him...wrote, produced, recorded, all instruments. I never thought much about the article until a year or two later when Prince broke out in The Cities.

I wasn't a super fan but I sure do enjoy his music. Too bad I've learned so much more about him after he died.

Springsteen opened with Purple Rain last week. Nice tribute Broooooce!

Of all the people to possibly cover prince, who the hell picked Springsteen?

I'm pretty sure Bruce picked Bruce. He opened his concert with the tribute last week.

This was a perfect tribute. Bruce S and the band walked on stage and sang an incredible song for an incredible artist. No sappy speech, a great song sang but one of America's greats.

I am not a fan of the bruce.
