World will never be the same...Glad you lived in my life time....dujhan...great work

Wow guys! A tribute, yes but this one should merit accolades for its current artists also. Great work Alpha and Jamie.

Very cool tribute, great drums & wah guitar, love the synth :)

You guys ROCK...bravo to all involved, great production!!!

Extra tasteful additions along that fantastic Alpha Roots track, Jamie. Really much ejoyed!!!!! :-)))

Beautiful tribute to the man!!  Lovely instrumentation...great effects, too.

Prince was a contemporary, who influenced music for almost 35 years, blending funk, soul, rock, pop and more, with creativity and musical ability across all instruments that has rarely been seen.  When Alphio (Alpha Roots) created this super funky track last week to honor the passing of Prince, I asked him if I could join him on a Part II.  Graciously, Alphio agreed and so I added a couple of synth lines to further spice it up a little.  The fantastic drum and congas and guitar lines are Alphio, and I have added the trumpet and low synth, following Alphio's beautiful wah guitar playing.  

If you aren't following Alpha Roots, please make the effort to check out his extensive collection of originals and collaborations:   he is a reggae master, and a very fine percussion player, guitarist and expressive vocalist - while even throwing down some nice keys too:  https://soundcloud.com/alpha-roots 

And here's a link to Alpha's original Jam For Prince https://soundcloud.com/alpha-roots/jam-for-prince-rip in case you haven't yet caught his classic tribute...

We thank you for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.  RIP Prince....
