I read the book in two sittings. Easy read. Can't wait to discuss.

Did you read Possessed: The Rise and Fall of Prince? If so, is there anything new in this book that wasn't already known? You don't have to go into details. A simple yes or no or a private message would suffice. Thanks!

My copy has been dispatched and will be with me tomorrow.

I'll just need a day or so to read it - bear with me! biggrin

I ordered mine yesterday, but I'm to cheap to do over night shipping, so it's suppose to be here by the 27th. sad

I get free P&P with Amazon Prime. Plus, if things are in the UK warehouse, they normally arrive the next day. Royal Mail can be pretty good sometimes! biggrin

I'm looking forward to reading it - I've got a couple of long train journeys this week (Monday and Wednesday) so plan on completing it then. (y)

Count me in. I have read it before, but this seems like a much better way to do it. Thanks for initiating this.

Got my signed copy in Minneapolis. A very enjoyable book.

The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018. (www.amazon.com/gp/product/1538114623/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0) or www.facebook.com/groups/1...104195943/

No, I never read the first book. But a friend of mine did and she said the newest one has more details.
