farewell purple prince

I wasn't a big fan of Prince, except for some songs absolutely stunning, as Purple Rain, Time, and half a dozen songs more. Purple Rain is Prince's only album I have and I only saw Prince in 1993, when he was promoting his Love Symbol Album. It was a frenetic concert in a huge stadium, but I couldn't believe how he REALLY screamed and played so incredibly well one of my favorite songs ever, Purple Rain. It worth all that concert :)
Farewell, extravagant genius, nothing compares to you.
