Last night Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band opened their show with a tribute to Prince. The stage at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn was lit purple as they played Purple Rain to honor the iconic musician who passed away this week.

I think they did a brilliant job, what a great version of a classic, and an incredible solo by Nils Lofgren. What a great way to pay tribute to the genius that was Prince.

Keep listening through the weekend as we also pay tribute to Prince with one of his hits every hour.
