                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Here's the chords I learned to play it with.  I am not 100% certain that I've named them correctly, but I am about 90% sure.  Play them in the order listed.  The cool thing about this is to solo in Bb major pentatonic over the first three chords, then move to Bb minor over the last (Eb add 9).  btw- I also tuned down ~capo my a**.<br><br><br><br><B>Bb add 9</B><br><br>--1---------F<br>--1---------C<br>--3---------Bb<br>--3---------F<br>--1---------Bb<br>--x---------<br><br><br><br><B>F add 11</B><br><br>--1----------F<br>--1----------C<br>--3----------Bb<br>--3----------F<br>--x----------<br>--3----------G<br><br><br><br><B>F</B><br><br>--1----------F<br>--1----------C<br>--2----------A<br>--3----------F<br>--3----------C<br>--1----------F<br><br><br><br><B>Eb add 9</B><br><br>--6----------Bb<br>--6----------F<br>--8----------Eb<br>--8----------Bb<br>--6----------Eb<br>--x-------------]]></content:encoded>

I saw him a couple of years ago in Brisbane, Australia. He was mind bogglingly good ... in a class of his own. He plays guitar as well as he sings, produces, plays keyboard, writes, performs, struts, plays bass, fronts a band, manages his mystique, trims his facial hair, dances, and on and on ... to perfection.<br><br>Kirk]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[At last year's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony (2004) where Prince was inducted, they also inducted George Harrison as a solo artist.  <br><br>When the ensemble on stage started to play "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", I'm wondering who's going to play the Eric Clapton solo since Eric wasn't there like he was this year?  <br><br>Prince walks out and starts to wail and my mouth dropped open and hit the floor!  WOW!!!  That little black man just smoked Eric Clapton!  Sorry Eric, but even you would have been impressed!<br><br>Then I later learn that Prince played all the instruments on his debute album.  Yeah, he's a little wierd but one hell of a musician and rightfully in the hall of fame.<br><br>And speaking of underated guitar players, how about Lindsay Buckingham?]]></content:encoded>
