Prince Pop Life

This show, broadcast live from The Isstadion, Stockholm on the 22nd of August 1986, thus provides a fascinating record of a critical juncture in the Prince story. Prince performs the bulk of Parade alongside a selection of greatest hits from across his career including Controversy, Raspberry Beret, Head, 1999, When Doves Cry & Purple Rain. On Parade In 86 is an essential recording for anyone with an interest in Prince a stunning collection from his first tour of Europe, and his last with The Revolution, it captures a critical moment in the endlessly compelling Prince story.

Prince 4Ever will bring together 40 of PRINCE’s best-loved songs, including the hits “When Doves Cry,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “Kiss,” “Little Red Corvette,” “Purple Rain,” “Raspberry Beret,” “Sign O’ The Times,” “Alphabet Street,” “Batdance,” and “Cream.” Prince 4Ever includes “Moonbeam Levels” – a previously unreleased song originally recorded in 1982 during the "1999" sessions and later considered for the never released "Rave Unto The Joy Fantastic" album. Prince 4Ever will also arrive with a 12-page booklet of never-before-seen photos by photographer Herb Ritts.

Along with his own Grammy-winning catalog, Prince’s legacy lives on through the numerous hits he wrote for other artists. A forthcoming posthumous album will explore this songwriter side of The High Priest of Pop through his own demos.

This blessed collection of unreleased demos, recorded by Prince to cassette in a single take, is enthralling. It plays like both omen and artifact of his hit-making power.
