Dez Dickerson Book

Did anyone pick it up and read it? I find popular culture very interesting and Dickerson's account of being part of a movement was fascinating. He told it well and unbiased. I hope someone here picked it up

I actually won a copy from Dez himself at a music conference last month. I haven't read it yet, but wow, what a really cool guy he was! It was great.

Yes, I got it and found it very fascinating -- this is the first REAL look into Prince's early music years 1979-1984. The one thing that bothered me a bit was that Dez seemed to take credit for many things Prince did -- have to wonder. Anyway, I still love Dez -- he's an awesome man (of God). Peace.

I've had this book for about 5 months now. It's an excellent read. Dez was always my favorite in Prince's band. Even over Prince.

Hi,

I just received the book today. Great book, with interesting pics.
About the pictures: how many are there in your books?
I read an add for the book that says there are over 50, but mine has only about 40.
Do I have a reprint with some 10 pics deleted? (for copyright reasons or so..)

Please let me know!
