PRINCE'S GUITAR CLINIC

Have you ever been sitting there, absent-mindedly flipping channels, about to turn the thing off and go read a book when you found something, a brief moment, completely wonderful, amazing, transcendent? I can think of two notable instances myself: When I turned to CNN about five seconds before Jon Stewart began his harangue for the ages on Crossfire, and when I happened upon Prince as he was about to turn everyone at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony into a pile of wet matter with a crazily skilled and entirely too-long guitar solo on While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I hadn't been able to find it online since then, but guess what? (via Metafilter) Enjoy.
