Classic Pop Presents Prince: A Celebration: Prince, Purple Rain, Prince Fanbook, When Doves Cry, 1980's, 80's Pop Music

In 2016 we lost a plethora of talent from across the world of entertainment, but surely the loss of the iconic Prince must rank among the most significant. The artist who brought us Purple Rain, When Doves Cry, Little Red Corvette and a panoply of other golden moments in pop has passed into the ether. In this special 132-page Classic Pop Presents bookazine, we look back at the life and career of Prince, from his early beginnings in Minneapolis to his rise to superstardom in the 80's and to his later position as a reclusive, religious figure in the 2000s. We take a decade-by-decade look at the Prince story, as well as separate, in-depth features highlighting the many songs that Prince wrote for others (or have been covered by others). We dissect Prince's many looks, and take a fascinating insight into the women that shaped Prince's life and music and also analyse the seminal Purple Rain album - the record that very much defined Prince's entire career. Plus, we've collected the most emotive reactions to Prince's passing, from the stars, and also look at the cultural figures that were inspired by him - featuring high quality rare pictures of Prince from every stage in his career - in a variety of fabulous outfits. We've worked hard to bring you this heartfelt tribute to one of pop music's brightest stars that dimmed too soon. We sincerely hope you enjoy this special commemoration. Read more
