Prince: All the Songs: The Story Behind Every Track Hardcover – November 8, 2022

Received as a gift from my son. Highly impressed with the quality of this book! It contains so much additional information about every album, songs and even associated projects. Two thumbs up!

This is an awesome book if you love Prince you need to have this book.

The book is HUGE and heavy. I've attached a few pictures of random pages, to give an idea of the various content it contains. Even though I am a fan from day 1, there's still much i don't know, there's music I've never heard, and pictures I've never seen. This book is a gem 💎 for me, that allows me to catch up on things i missed out on over the years. It will take a long time to go through the book, and take in every bit of information on every single song he's done. 🤯 Plus there are pictures I've never seen for me to gaze at. 😍 There's photos of various other artists in the book, that have some relevance to Prince, in some way. If you are a big fan, I recommend getting the book. I got it on sale, so for me, it was a quick no brainer. I can't wait to dive in, and learn the backstory on some of my favorite songs, and also on songs I've never heard before. 5 stars from me. My copy arrived on time, and in great condition. 👍🏼🤗

This book is a must have for a Prince fam. It's chock full of every song, beautiful pictures and info on how he came about each and every song. I love it💜💜

A lot of informative stories and pictures. Could have more lyrics. But I love this book.

It took me forever to read this book, mainly because I kept pausing to listen to Prince’s music while I read it.I love that author Benoit Clerc doesn’t just catalogue every Prince song but also offer his opinion of some of them as well, even if I disagree with that opinion (example: I’ve always thought “3 Chains of Gold” off the Symbol album was a bit overdone and pretentious, but Clerc writes that it’s the highlight of the album and “ranks among Prince’s greatest songs. Rightly considered as Prince’s Bohemian Rhapsody or Stairway to Heaven.” Sorry but “Purple Rain” is clearly Prince’s Stairway to Heaven.”)I also learned a few things from this book. Like I never knew Jon Bon Jovi asked Prince if he could record with his band, the New Power Generation (and that Prince turned him down.). I also discovered a few covers of Prince songs I’d missed through the years. In fact as I read it I made a Spotify playlist called “Overlooked Prince Songs.”But the best part about this book was it felt like a walk through my entire life. I’ve been a huge Prince fan since my early teens and I’ve bought every one of his albums the day they were released, immersing myself in them for weeks on end. So revisiting something like Around The World In A Day brought me back to being 19 and wasting time in college. Or the epic Emancipation, which I listened to non-stop in early 1997 as I was trying to navigate the waters of being a solo entrepreneur. Prince’s music, more than any artists, has been the soundtrack to my life and this book was an awesome opportunity to relisten and reminisce.

Whom I love dearly...

What a fantastic book detailing every track by Prince!From small to larger facts given throughout the book. The photos are amazing and just a nice reference book for the serious fan to the modest fan. LOVE IT!!!! ⭐️😎
