Infos

It is almost thirty years since Prince Rogers Nelson released his first album. In that time he has been a superstar, a recluse, an inspiration, an enigma, a slave and a symbol. But throughout all these changes he has remained a prodigiously talented singer, songwriter, performer and musician. From the highs of Purple Rain and Sign O' The Times to the bitter quarrels and commercial failures of the 1990s, Prince - whatever name or alias he uses - has remained a compulsively creative force and a unique voice in rock, pop, soul or whatever he turns his hand to.

Autor

Brian Morton was born in Paisley and grew up in New Orleans-on-Clyde, aka Dunoon, where he acquired a lifelong passion for jazz. He taught at university before spending ten years working on The Times and its supplements; he then became a freelance writer and broadcaster, and has had an illustrious career as an arts and music commentator on BBC Radio Scotland and on BBC Radio 3. His publications include The Penguin Guide To Jazz which he co-authors with Richard Cook.
