‘The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,’ But It Will Be Dragged
So, apparently someone told someone else that they played the opening riff for “When Doves Cry.”  The second someone told that comment publicly and the first someone claims they did not say it.  Let’s be perfectly clear, here’s what you said JUST THIS WEEK: https://www.premierguitar.com/articles/26282-wendy-melvoin-playing-for-the-revolution?page=1
That great poet laureate of the 1980s, Oran “Juice” Jones, once, “said you without me is like cornflakes without the milk.” That’s basically The Revolution without Prince. To quote that other great mind, David Ruffin, “The Revolution without Prince is a group in search of a Prince” (and no imposters, no impersonators, please, we’ve had enough of those; no holograms, either). Since some folks are really feeling themselves these days, let’s make your musical mediocrity VERY PLAIN using pictures since you were given all the pieces to the puzzle and still couldn’t find a clue no better than you can find the right notes in your diaphragm to sing. So we are going to help you once again.  The following are animated examples of all the ways The Revolution (and one particular female guitarist) are a joke:

In closing, we need to remind the wannabe front woman of who she is and where she came from: PLAY YOUR POSITION, know your role and stay in your damn lane. Because we have 30 years of receipts of you talking smack about that man before he died and best believe we will pull those out if need be! Susannah, you better get your sister together before we do!
                                        *****UPDATE*****
We got a message for that guitarist from David Ruffin, seems he also wanted to remind you that Prince was the David Ruffin and she is Otis.... and well, “ain’t nobody coming to see you, Wendy!”

Wendy Melvoin playing @prince's Purple Rain with @therevolution made the @recordingacademy's Tribute to Prince! My eyes started welling up when she started that intro. But when she came through on the guitar solo, it felt like it was meant to be. Thank you, Wendy. 💜☔️💜 #prince #grammystributetoprince #wendymelvoin #wendyandlisa #therevolution #princeandtherevolution #npg #newpowergeneration #princeandthenewpowergeneration https://www.instagram.com/p/B_RHQyjnq4N/?igshid=1v3bcgkce3e5o

⠀ Wendy and Lisa "Wendy and Lisa" (1987) ⠀ Seriously good album by Wendy Mevoin and Lisa Colman recorded after Prince broke up The Revolution in 1986. I don’t think it ever received the attention it truly deserved. ⠀ #WendyAndLisa #WendyMelvoin #LisaColeman #BobbyZ #TheRevolution #PrinceAndTheRevolution #vinyl #album #vinyligclub #instavinyl #vinyljunkie #vinylcollection #vinylcollectionpost

👑🎸🥁🎹🗣️🎤🎵🎼💜 On December 13th 1984, I witnessed Prince and The Revolution at the Rosemont Horizon on the Purple Rain Tour. My life was changed that night. They and opening Sheila E were devastating on that stage. We were in the nosebleed seats behind the stage, looking down on Lisa Coleman and Matt Fink on keyboards as well as drummer Bobby Z. I knew that I had to play. And here I am 38 years later. #backinthaday #princeandtherevolution #purplerain #purpleraintour #prince #lisacoleman #wendymelvoin #drfink #brownmark #bobbyz #musicalinspirations https://www.instagram.com/p/CmImpqtMwH1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
