I worked for prince as a chauffeur from 1984 through 1989, Mainly in Los Angeles, I did join the Purple Rain Tour a few weeks in through the end. I spent many long days and nights at the Studio, also taking him to various venues. I was the driver of the Purple Limo at the Premier at the Chinese Theater. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have. I will not disclose information that would affect any person, this would be strictly a professional answer to generic questions you may have... Murray

Just wonder if you were privy to his sense of humor/playfulness, I recall a rolling stone interview that chronicled Prince throwing tennis balls from his vehicle at adoring fans who recognized him. Would appreciate any such stories. Appreciate you providing us a glimpse into the moving life of Prince

Did Prince have you play any unreleased music on your journeys with him, that to your knowledge, remains unreleased? If so, are there any songs you found particularly memorable?

Lol, hope he comes back and answers it.

Rumor has it that Prince had a bed put in the back of a limo around the time you drove for him; true not true? Thank you!

A1minder, thank you for offering to answer questions on here. What was your most memorable experience with Prince and what was your most memorable experience driving for other people (well known or not) besides Prince?

Were U the chauffeur that was driving Prince around the night of The American Music Awards in 1985 when the paparazzi caught him going out instead of attending that famous 'We Are The World' recording session that caused his FIRST backlash after becoming a huge superstar? If so what was Prince's reaction & yours? And was he with Jill Jones that night?

When will OP return from the war

Dear Murray, thank you for coming here and chat with us

.

I don't have any specific question but in all those years I'm sure you have accumulated many significant memories. I'm particularly interesting in Prince's creative and recording process when it comes to studio recordings, so if you were lucky enough to attends some of those, please share with us any memory you may have about this.

.

Of course, anything else that makes for cool stories or that may be revealing about the things Prince went through at the time would be quite interesting (without dwelving into his private life, but what I mean is you were there during the years when Prince went on his journey from to superstardom, and I'm sure you've seen him change and go through many a challenge over the years).
