1st music cassette I ever bought was Prince's Purple Rain. 2nd was Genesis' Invisible Touch. Purple Rain was also the 2nd CD I ever bought, after Rush's Moving Pictures. This was an exceptional article with his recording engineer, Susan Rogers, on the 30th anniversary of Purple Rain. http://www.vibe... |

Michael Jackson, James Brown, and Prince on stage (1983 ) James Brown had a lot of famous friends in the audience when he played a concert in Los Angeles in 1983. First he called up Michael Jackson from the crowd, and then, at the two-minute mark in the video below, he called up Prince, who hopped o... |

Prince Rogers Nelson is my personal multi-instrumentalist hero. I saw him in an interview with Casey Jones, and Prince casually picked up something like 6 instruments laying around the studio--keyboards, guitars, basses, drums, and then a blistering saxophone solo--and just showed up some amazing ch... |

I've been using this one for a couple of months. It's very heavy/heavyduty. Tama HC83BW - $89 from a local music store. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HC83BW Looks great! But there are 3 options: straight stand, for $79, boom stand for $89 (which was the one you linked to and are probably r... |

FWIW, Roger just updated the Linnstrument firmware this week and the instrument feels better than ever. He described the change by saying that it would be harder to reach midi velocity 127 (the max value) when you strike a pad and that other changes were made which would make for a more "natur... |

Speaking of foot controllers, I've got a 13-key Studiologic one, mostly because of what Rush did with Taurus. Turns out that triggering long low notes is the only thing this keyboard is good for, you can't really play bass lines with one octave range. Besides, you need a height-adjustable bench and... |

As Kevin and I were chatting offline, he mentioned that I'd need a beefy stand, and I'll be rocking a heavy-ish Railboard as well on it. I needed to get a new stand anyway, and Gene tells me I'm getting TAGG v1.2 production model 002--and I also can't make the FHF but I definitely plan to catch it l... |
