Don t expect too much. I always thought Parkes artwork and photography was pretty awful. Prince has worked with some great photographers but Parke is not one of them.


Prince would disagree. I don't know why Parke got so much hate. Prince approved everything. Blame Prince, not Steve, or Katz, or Jennings, or whoever. Parke is actually very talented, and he knows what he's doing. You can not like it, but that doesn't negate his talent. It means you choose not to recognize it. He's a very funny guy, loves to talk, is creative, and generous with his stories about ol' boy.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Yeah he sounds like a great guy because of how faithful to him Prince and associated artists have been by continuing working with him even though his work is far from great. That says a lot about the man. Respect that a lot.

Now, Jeff Katz, that's the coffee table book I could see buying:

Yeah, Katz was there up through SOTT for a short bit. It was a good time for photos, etc.
