He owned his appearance, his sound, and his music. He would only allow himself to be recorded on his terms, and even any interviews he gave had to be written down rather than recorded. If anything, it's admirable.<br /><br />On the other hand, with him so stringent on controlling this, there's the small issue with his vault. As I recall, Prince has a vault of music, where all his unreleased music sits, and will likely forever sit. And it's massive. Here is a man who would go on binges of recording music, hours at a time, from his mind straight to disk, and none of it ever saw the light of day. What will become of that legacy I wonder.m4noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-38954198160660949222016-04-22T09:29:23.965-05:002016-04-22T09:29:23.965-05:00Good riddance!
