2016 has been a horrible year for music will the loss of David Bowie, Glenn Frey and now Prince.
I was never a super big fan of Prince but when I was a Music Director at a radio station all of his songs were an instant add to the rotation.
His music was unique and his songs have stood the test of time.
My favorite story of how big of an icon he was came from earlier this year after the SNL 40th Anniversary show. At the after party with the likes of Paul McCartney, Beyonce and Taylor Swift in attendance it was Prince that got everyone’s attention. The whole room of celebrities stopped to look and listen. It was everyone’s favorite part of the night. In says a lot that famous celebrities were in awe in his presence.
