To start with, Prince is not a great musician, but that is my opinion, and music appreciation is pretty much a subjective issue, and my opinion is all I care about.
And, I never said Michael Jackson can't sing, I said
Prince can't sing. Bloody well awful. MIcheal Jackson is a Pavoratti compared to Prince.
BTW, an awful lot of high school band directors can play many instruments well, that doesn't qualify them as music stars, or as great musicians.
