The Greatest Guitar Solo You've Never Seen | Prince - The Aftershow | Joy in Repetition (Live 2002)

Today would have marked another round around the sun for Prince ☀️ It feels like the perfect moment to share something truly special:

If I had a machine that could take me to any place, at any moment – this Aftershow would be my first stop. And honestly, I’d probably go there again and again! These 15 minutes capture the raw creativity and hypnotic power of Prince, his band, and his musical friends like almost nothing else.

What you're watching is a rare gem: an unauthorized fan-shot video combined with the officially released soundboard audio. Back when I was a student, I spent an entire weekend syncing both sources by hand. I wasn’t fully happy with my original edit – so now, years later, I’ve returned to it and polished it up.

Yes, the video starts off shaky – but stick with it. Soon, the magic takes over, and watching Prince and the band conjure this sound becomes something you can’t look away from. That first guitar solo? One of the most powerful I’ve ever heard. And for Prince, it was just warming up. The second solo? That’s something not from this Earth.

But I don’t want to spoil too much. So: Sit back, close the curtains, turn up the volume and imagine it’s 2 a.m. in a live music club in New York City in 2002. You’re there, witnessing musical history as it’s being made.
