RMweb Premium zarniwhoop Posted December 28, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2021 I find it hard to associate the label 'revered heavy rock guitarist' with Prince. Talented, and multi-instrumentalist, yes to both, but a heavy rock axeman ? You cannot be serious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
