Includes bibliographical references.
Summary:
"Ben Greenman, contributing writer to the New Yorker and owner of thousands of recordings of
Prince
and Prince-related songs, knows intimately that there has never been a rock star as vibrant, mercurial, willfully contrary, experimental, or prolific as
Prince
. Uniting a diverse audience while remaining singularly himself,
Prince
was a tireless artist, a musical virtuoso and chameleon, and a pop-culture prophet who shattered traditional ideas of race and gender, rewrote the rules of identity, and redefined the role of
sex
in pop
music
. Greenman has been listening to and writing about
Prince
since the mid-eighties. Here, with the passion of an obsessive fan and the skills of a critic, journalist, and novelist, he mines his encyclopedic knowledge of
Prince
's
music
to tell both his story and the story of the paradigm-shifting ideas that he communicated to his millions of fans around the world. The autobiography of a generation and its ideas, and a fitting tribute to an extraordinary talent."--Provided by publisher.
