Opinions? Prince: All the Songs. The story behind every track

I’m thinking of buying this book by Benoit Clerc.
Any opinions?
Thanks!

It's the story behind every song? That would be a big book.

Has good feedback on Amazon, if that helps.

I've thumbed through it a few time at book stores. My impression is that there really isn't much that can't be found on PrinceVault. It is nice to have the info printed out with a lot of pictures.

I received that book as a gift from a friend who works in publishing. It is a great coffee table book. I still occasionally flip though it for inspiration of what Prince stuff I might listen to next.

I'm reading it now front to back. Nearly finished around page 500 or so. (HnR P !!). It's been an enjoyable read with a clearly British author. I picked up on a few tidbits here and there that I either did not know or had forgotten.
