The Lyrics of Prince Author Discusses Prince's Legacy

*

Here is a link to video of The Lyrics of Prince author, C. Liegh McInnis, discussing the legacy of Prince. There isn't much new information, but he does discuss his first meetings with Prince in 2002 when Prince contacted him to write a book. The first 16 minutes is the full interview, and the last 2 minutes is just what was aired on local Fox 40 News and WLBT.

What a nice dude, and he really pays attention to what really matters.

I tried to order his book back when it first published but it was impossible to find it, I went to several bookstores but to no avail, it was as if it didn´t even exist.

" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

Was it hard to find ?

The bookstores I went to are specialized in finding rare books but they could simply not get this book for me. They found it on their list but could not order it. Or rather, it never arrived.

It looks a bit cheap but ...you should never judge a book by its cover.

I hope that Mr.McInnis can re-release his book again, maybe with better distribution. Looks like a self-printed, low budget affair from what I gather.

You can purchase McInnis' book from his website: www.psychedelicliterature.com. At the top of the page, click on the "Books and Readings" tab, then scroll down to find it. He's written seven books. Or, you can purchase it at Amazon.com. At Amazon you can search for the book by the author's name or by The Lyrics of Prince. Hope this helps.
