Holiday Gift Alert 2017, I am currently reading a review copy of "Prince and the Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions: 1983 and 1984" by Duane Tudahl. I can't stop read this book. I feel like it was written for me. This book "meticulously" details an important slice of Prince history 1983-1984. I am impressed by how well it was researched and intimately put together. by the author. It's an honest labor or love.
Please, don't let title fool you this is more than about the studio sessions. It's about the music, the life and the time, cooperated by people who were there...
While you reading this your going to want to dust off your Prince music and listen again as the stories of the tracks unfold for the first time in a new light.
I can't wait for the hardcover to come out in November. Pre-Order your copy today! http://amzn.to/2y5qo5g

This was an okay read for me. What did blow me away was the dedication and passion that this writer had to give us a glimpse into the life and person known as Prince. Sometimes we put legendary people and legends on a pedestal and think they are untouchable but this book makes you realize that a person with Prince's status and fame is still just a person. We as people might not have the same struggle but in life we all struggle at some point with something. There were great and hard times, mistakes were made and lessons were learned, he gave up things but earned more in return, he rose and he fell, but through it all it was his journey who made him who he was; a true legend.
