It's very unexpected of Al I think. I always associated him with black or sunburst les pauls, so even his blue McCartey looked gaudy in his hands. I don't think this guitar is ugly at all, I just think it's way over the top and something I'd expect to see played by Prince.

Are you implying.... a degree of tastelessness there Tom?

I have to say I agree with Roo (!!!what???!!!) - they really should've put the colours in the right order, if nothing else.

Also a great performance, and my fave song on that album.

I don't want to be opinionated but I simply can't stand that music at all...

I like some of his late '70s material, but I couldn't find any YouTube clips with decent sound quality.

I'm not really familiar with much of his later work, but he seemed to go off in different directions - lots of acoustic guitar, but also synthesizers and "world music".

I just keep remembering that awful video I saw of him where he's having a guitar "fight" and there are loads of cheesy lasers and stuff :lol:

It actually looks damn cool in the hands of a player I must admit.

Certainly looks better in use though it is not to my taste.
