Grammy nominee, and award-winning author, Duane Tudahl, pulls back the paisley curtain to reveal the untold day-to-day story of Prince’s time secluded behind the doors of the recording studio and his rise from cult favorite to the biggest rock star on the planet.

Featuring an additional 50+ pages and multiple new interviews, this expanded paperback includes even more details about Prince’s released and unreleased music from this era, based on unprecedented access to dozens of musicians, singers, and studio engineers who knew Prince best, including members of the Revolution, Vanity 6, Apollonia 6, the Family and the Time.

This definitive, and expanded, chronicle of Prince’s creative brilliance during 1983 and 1984 provides a new experience of the Purple Rain album as an integral part of Prince’s life and the lives of those closest to him.
