I properly discovered Prince in the 90's, it was Diamonds and Pearl tour that I first saw him live, I was 16 or 17? I went to early stuff from there but always had a soft spot for his first Love Symbol album with Sexy MF, which just gave me a taste of jazz but not too jazzy, a taste of soul but not too soulful. He is a cross genre master and I loved all of it. I last saw him when I was very pregnant, 13 years ago, and I'm so glad I did. That was when I really loved the early stuff, Alphabet St, Paisley Park, Sign o the times. I'll listen to Gold Epxerience, because why not?!
“1958-1993” Turns out he was twenty-three years too early...
This is the true Rubicon of his career- there is the "Prince" era material (1979-1993) and then the "artist formerly known as" era after that (1993-2016). I gravitate to the former era, and probably many of his fans still do.
It astounds me that there is still material he made on tape that hasn't been released yet- it almost seems like he lived in his recording studio...

Wow, incredible memories I’m sure. :) Thanks Nat!
