"I'm not sure who was more shy" Deborah Feingold photog Prince 33 yrs ago

This was posted on the Housequake FB page a few days ago... didn't see it on here. But it's a cool story & pic of Prince in 1980, taken by photographer Deborah Feingold.

[img:$uid]http://deborahfeingold.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/prince5_198010.jpg?w=900[/img:$uid]

I’m not sure who was more shy that night. We shot for about a minute. I was extremely nervous as I struggled to engage him in the shoot. Not knowing what else to do, I handed him my camera and suggested that he take a picture, which he seemed happy and relieved to do!

Read the whole story on Feingold's blog here.

She has since tweeted:

"It was magic! Trust me!"

"It was a great day!"

"That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32

Love these early black and white photos of Prince. Gives a real feel for that era when the first couple of albums were out. I guess this was just at the transition between the "turn the lights off when recording" "holds four fingers up to Dick Clark" Prince and that red-kneckerchief'd, bikini briefed mutha getting simulated head from his keyboard player... lol
