    Prince , A Purple Reign , BBC 2

    Excellent documentary so far

    Incredible multi talented musician

    Could easily have fronted a full on riffing metal band with his guitar skills

    You had to lower the tone
    I was doing a bit of work in the house this morning and asked Alexa to play 60's music, not that much into Hendrix but a few of his tunes were played and not sure why different today but really took notice and have been playing some of his stuff on UTube tonight

    I've compared Prince's playing to Hendrix before now, but not thought about the tights and high heels

    You used Bezos's app as the best way to start sourcing your favourite music before deciding to switch to Google's video stream to set your Hanzel and Gretel trail. Fair play, bloody msm!

    Are you using amazon echos ?

    I think the grapefruit sized ones are OK but not enough arse end really and the small ones are only suitable for low volume background stuff

    Was thinking of getting the larger studio in a pair

    That's one hell of a GOTCHA
    My only defence GUV is that the Spotify account I use on the echo show belongs not to me
    thinly veiled, I'll use anything if its a freebie

    Think its the echo show, it's main use is as a door bell & video for the ring.

    Yes it is, my daughter bought it for me a while back, it's i think a 7" screen but you can get I think 10" screen ones. if you just want one for music I think the echo dot gives a bit more oomph

    The echo dot is OK for a small room , I have one as an alarm and out of the shower music but I am looking at a pair of studios or maybe a sonus

    Avalon is the only Roxy album I have in the collection, it's one of those had to have it at the time albums as everyone else had it, a bit like Lionel Ritchie's can't slow down album, I have this but nothing else by him.
