Think that person was probably looking for "Wendy Melvoin" and "Lisa Coleman", that's what caused me to miss them looking over that list as well.

Yes that was it
I see they're listed under W as one entity and I missed it. I was looking under M for wendy and C for lisa.

Or because most of the folks on there are musicians. Alan wasn't. Could be.

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

From Alan Leeds, "Hey folks....don't read into this. I think I had been included by mistake - there are NO management on this list whatsoever, from any era, these are all artists or celebs of some sort."

"eye don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r."

The only glaring omission I see is little Richard. Gun to head I'd say Prince has more than a little, little Richard dna in him! He probably just missed him, though.

No Mayte? alright, that's cold. Prince might've moved on from her via depression, adultery and deception by a horrible, stalking, conniving piece of work, but Mayte was still part of his 'spiritual development' or as i would call it 'being less sensible', he should've thanked her too. but whatever. That's Prince. neutral

.

I suspect if this was written more recently than circa 2000ad , it might've been a bit different. I'd hope so anyway.

Regarding his mom, in an interview one time, Prince had mentioned how his mom didn't like him being a musician because she thought he would be like his dad. So he may have felt she didn't support that part of his life and therefore didn't include her in this list. His dad taught him how to play the piano, so it makes sense he included him.
