I would love to see something like "Charting The Beatles" for Prince

This is just amazing: http://www.mikemake.com/#...he-Beatles

Exploration of Beatles music through infographics (ongoing project)

These visualizations are part of an extensive study of the music of the Beatles. Many of the diagrams and charts are based on secondary sources, including but not limited to sales statistics, biographies, recording sesion notes, sheet music, and raw audio readings.


There's several great charts there, but I'd really love to see something like "Working Schedule, 1963-1966" applied to Prince's most creative years (i.e. the mid-1980s). Not necessarily in that format, since Prince often did several things at the same time (i.e. recording while touring,...), but more clear, so you'd really see the insanity of those years.

Awesome. This would be a wonderful reference if done about Prince.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.
