Howard Debuts Prince
Okay, well, it very well may be morphing into Prince week here on Ickmusic. I was pleasantly surprised when I turned on Howard Stern this morning to hear them listening to some new Prince tracks. They were listening to (and talking over, for the most part) two new covers: “All Along the Watchtower” and “The Best of You” (a Foo Fighters tune).
Here’s what it sounded like (click the little Play button):
[audio:prince-howard.mp3]Sounds pretty cool, though I can’t really see Prince pulling out either of these songs for the Super Bowl performance. But who knows?
Also, as you can see on top, Prince will be releasing a brand new tune called “Guitar” on Friday morning through his web site, 3121.com. An album may not be far behind.
I think Friday is also the day he is scheduled to perform at a press conference. A flurry of activity in the little fella’s world! Sweet!

Wow! Prince makes even the Foo Fighters sound good! Now, if only he had some magic way to get Howard to SHUT THE HELL UP while the song is playing,,,

Thierry – now we both know that’s impossible.

Interesting. It’s an ok cover (from what I could hear). I was sort of more interested in Howard’s story about meeting Prince.
Wonder if this, and the new song on friday are hinting at a guitar-driven project?

Can we anticipate a morning Purple message to remind us to download or a live (counted) link from the Prince Forum?
Help Pete drive traffic?
