There's a new book an Prince you might be interested in that I just received from Amazon.com. It's called PRINCE: CHAOS, DISORDER AND REVOLUTION by Jason Draper. It covers Prince's life from the beginnings of his to the present up to the 20Ten album. It has been a inteesting read so far. As the writer states in the introduction, this is not a "muckraker, it's not a gossip. and it sure as hell not bent on setting one man up to knock him down." This book covers everything including the different websites like LotusFlover.com and the like. It just gives you the details of what has happened in Prince's life and career and leaves it up to you to make your own conclusions. It also contains a timeliine of Prince's life and career from 1958 to December 2010. You can order it thru Amazon.com at $13.59.

I bought it and I am about half way through it now.

There was a thread started about the book very recently here:

http://prince.org/msg/7/358366

almost finished it....not very good imo....number of factual errors in it and doesnt compare to per nilsen's books other than being more up to date...

.

there is also a new book out on kindle amazon called ' prince in the studio '...i havent started reading that one yet...

.

Oh! I would also appreciate if those books were available as e-books. Thanks.

I just got this book a few weeks ago. It is exactly the same as Prince Life and Times. The only difference is Chaos, Disorder and Revolutuion is updated through 2010, and is the paperback edition with less pictures.

If you have not purchased either one I defienetly reccomend spending the money on the Life and Times book. It has nice BIG pictures and great fold out time lines.

I have one simple question: if u've read DMSR, Slave 2 The Rythm and Possessed, is there anything NEW to learn from this book?

Won't buy it until i get a definitive answer to that

OK thanks, and therefore do we learn anything about these last 10 years that a regulat Org reader wouldn't already know?
