LawrenceH Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Love this thread! Prince stuff is particularly awesome, the Fatback band a few pages ago also. I did try and check if this one's been done...but it's good enought that any inadvertant repeat is worth it: Edited February 6, 2011 by LawrenceH Quote
