Send us Fan MailThis week on When Doves Podcast, Jared and Ed get down and way too funky as they dive headfirst into Prince’s legendary “chicken grease” scratch guitar style — the tight, percussive magic that makes your shoulders move before your brain even clocks what’s happening.They start by tipping the hat to the OG architects of the groove, breaking down the genius of Jimmy Nolen and Freddie Stone, the unsung heroes who turned rhythm guitar into a full-on rhythmic weapon. Then it’s off to Paisley Park (spiritually, at least) as they track how Prince took that foundation and, across his first eight albums, refined it into something unmistakably his own — sharp, sexy, and impossibly precise.Along the way, there’s plenty of “wait, did you hear THAT?” moments, a lot of stank-face reactions, and a full-on celebration of the Purple One’s funkiest instincts. The episode wraps with the guys’ top 5 Prince tracks where that chicken grease is front and center.Strap in. It’s nerdy, it’s greasy, it’s deeply funky. 🎸The Starter | Music, Memory & the Songs We KeepYou hear a song, and a memory opens up.
