1977 interview I had never read this whole interview before. http://www.mndaily.com/ne...rple-reign It is sweet and very perceptive. I liked these bits:
"Prince is making an obvious effort to hide his impatience the night I visited him during a recording session at Sound 80 a few weeks back. The WAYL [radio] Strings were trying to lay down a not too difficult track that Prince had written, and the 16th notes were coming out like mush. They plugged away for about an hour when Prince very politely told the conductor to change the 16th notes to quarter notes. This done, he slumped down in his seat, looking dissatisfied and slightly annoyed. “We won’t be able to use that. I hate wasting time. I want to hear that song on the radio.” [Please do not post article in its entirety as this is copyright material. No permission from source snip - luv4u] | |

OK, I liked paragraph 11 above and paragraphs 18-21 about his personal appeal and how cute he was, the one about having jive down to a subtle art and the milk shake | |

The part about the milkshake made me smile. He was such a special mischevious little guy. | |
