The Man and His Music

About this book

A "highly engaging" biography of the Grammy award-winning artist, updated with information about the afterlife of his work following his untimely death ( Observer).
Famously reticent and perennially controversial, Prince was one of the few music superstars who remained, largely, an enigma—even up to his premature death on April 21, 2016. A fixture of the pop canon, Prince is widely held to be the greatest musician of his generation and will undoubtedly remain an inspiring and singular talent.
This revised and updated second edition of this meticulously researched biography is the most comprehensive work on Prince yet published. Acclaimed British novelist and critic Matt Thorne draws on years of research and dozens of interviews with Prince's intimate associates (many of whom have never spoken on record before) to examine every phase of the musician's 35-year career, including nearly every song—released and unreleased—that Prince has recorded.
Originally released in the UK in 2012, this revised and updated second US edition includes updated content regarding work released and made available after the artist's death. A must-have for any serious fan of Prince.
"If you're as much of a fan as Thorne, you'll be in heaven." —Daily Telegraph
"The final word on the mad genius known as Prince Rogers Nelson. There is now quite literally nothing more to say about Prince or his music. It's all here—dance, sex, romance, and above all, the music. Downright orgasmic." —Current magazine
"Impishly encyclopaedic, brings alert senses to bear. . . in stripping back the purple finery." —Independent on Sunday Music Books of the Year
