Prince and his orchestrator never meet in person,can you belive it?

Quality thread.

The topic-title is misleading imo. You can't automatically assume that Prince didn't want to meet Clare. People can work perfectly from a distance.

it's not misleading at all,i read an interview with Clare and he said that at the begining of his colaboration

with Prince he and Prince were supposed to meet to discuss the

details of Fishers input,yet something happend and they didn't meet.

Prince didn't want to meet mr. Fisher because he thought it would

be a bad luck or something.

Okay then ... nevertheless, their collaboration worked. We've been treated with great arrangements from Clare.

As much as this has always surprised me, it's likely that very few of us (if any) would know Clare Fisher's name, or have ever heard anything he orchestrated, if he hadn't worked so frequently with Prince.

I don't think he would have been completely unkown. He's worked on his own and with plenty of other people. I just think there's a good chance that VERY FEW of US would know who he is if it wasn't for his work with Prince. So it doesn't actually matter how they worked together. We still know who the guy is because his name was on all those records back in the day.

Yeah, i know. I misread some in your previous post lol.

I actually knew of Clare Fisher through his work with Rufus and Chaka Khan (although I thought it was a woman at the time)...I've always loved his musical soundscapes!

no no, Prince is just, "shy"

So true. I have the "WoW" CD where Clare Fischer and his son are discussing what Prince had send to Clare regarding "Parade" (musical direction).

I thought it was a woman as well, thanks for the correction. I love his work on Ask Rufus and the Pink album

Prince also wears flip flops.
