Hi Gang!
Earlier this week (on Sunday January 30 to be exact) I posted to this
board that you could hear an interview I did with Patrice Rushen in
which she discussed her work with Prince. Unfortunately, after I made that
post, there were some technical difficulties (as they say in the biz) so
the interview may not have been available to all of you who visited
my MP3.Com site.(Yes, I too am a singer/songwriter and producer.)
To those people I apologize. However, I have good news now - the technical
difficulties have been fixed and the Patrice interview is now available to
all who visit my site. And to those on this list who had questions about
Patrice's role in Prince's career, you can get those questions answered by
the lady herself. Just visit my site at:

Once you're there, click on to Shawn's Top 20 Favorites then go to
the bottom of that page to hear the interviews. Real Audio, Windows
Media Player and Mp3 player will all work just fine.
Because it was late in going up, the interview as well as the list of my
Top 20 Favorite Prince tunes will remain up before going into the
archives. Please let me know what you thought of the interview and feel
free to share your thoughts here with the group. Again, my apologies for
any inconvenience. Hope you enjoy hearing how these two icons of the '80s
inspired each other.
