^^^ This. It's in the UK or somewhere else in April. The publisher picked the date, not Parke for those wondering. If you follow Parke on his personal Facebook page, he's been updating about it.

You mean Allen Beaulieu?

I'd love to have a book from Jeff Katz. In fact, one of my favorite Prince photos has Jeff in it.

Yes, Allen, and I want one from Jeff too

Allen said somewhere he has about 300 photos of Prince (including Vanity 6 and the Time) he took a bunch for the Purple Rain period that Prince did not use too

So... This arrived yesterday and it's wonderful. So many superb pictures of Prince the man but it's the anecdotes that really got me.

Thoroughly thoroughly recommended. A must buy really.

My fave shot is probably him playing basketball.

Agreed, it's a wonderful book with fantastic anecdotes and some candid photos of Prince. It did make me sad by the end for some reason but you will really enjoy it if you're a fan.
