I remember this shot with Chick and his Dad. I always thought it was cool he dressed up like his son.

The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

That's 1 thing I loved about Erotic City, everyone who came into his camp pretty much had to have the look... His father dressed similar during the Parade era as well

I know, I was thinking the same thing.

It was a curious meeting, watching people who knew each other since 1982 Revolution, Chick, Prince.. it was interesting

But they were definately a pretty bunch .... U Got the Look

Hello Orgers: That night was very nice, but it was also very dissappointing. That night I found out from a friend that P and Apples were not in a real relationship. It was all promotional-that's it. Question, Apples was there, somewhere, where was she sitting at in the audience? (any photos?) Sheena Easton was there as well, where was she seated?

Prince & the Revolution @ the American Music Awards in 1985

LA:Shrine Auditorium 1.28.1985



Prince & The Revolution performed "Purple Rain" at the 1985 American Music Awards and just absolutely killed it! The White Cloud was front and center in this clip and it looked and sounded great! I don't even remember what happened with the rest of the show after but it was pretty much over for me after that! I feel bad for whoever had to follow that act! I have heard and seen alot of his performances of "Purple Rain" over the years but this will always be one of my favorites. If you were lucky enough to see it at the time and weren't a fan you were when it was over!

Madonna presents an award to Prince & The Revolution at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles

1.28.1985 Prince & Jill Jones downtown L.A. on the way 2 Carlos & Charles rest.

I was sittin' pretty with a beautiful friend ("Oh darling")
When this man tries 2 get in the car
("Hey Prince, come on, give us a smile, eh?")
No introduction, "How've U been?"
Just - "Up yours! Smile, that's right, U're a star!" (Star)



Is that Jill Jones in the last picture standing near Prince? The blond?
