As 2016 continues to take talented musicians like Bowie and Prince one question looms large – how on earth is Keith Richards still trucking along?
Of course when Armageddon strikes it will be Keith and the cockroaches that remain, and he will probably snort your ashes for good measure.
Whilst Prince released a massive body of music there were some tapes that never saw the light of day, including an LP called ‘The Undertaker”. Here’s Gawker:
Prince intended to release it packaged with an issue of Guitar World magazine, and, as you might imagine from that distribution plan, all seven rock-inflected songs feature plenty of Prince’s dextrous soloing. His war with Warner Brothers got in the way, and the CD was blocked from release. But, oddly, Warner Brothers did release the promotional VHS intended to accompany the album.
Thanks to that VHS you can see Prince’s take on the Stones classic up top, and for a point of comparison here’s Mick and the crew with a live show in Brazil:
