Read all about how it was created and crafted here.
Quality is exceptional. Printed on 250gsm Rives Tradition paper, with a 6-colour process and hot foil gold and custom lace binding.
Thirty full-page illustrations, forty pages total.
It's large too. Very large: 43x33cm (17x13in), and weighs a hefty 2.6kg (5.7lb).
The foreword is handwritten by Ida "Bass In Your Face" Nielsen.
It's my vision of Prince: not always accurate, yet always true.
It's not chronological. It's anachronistic, even.
He didn't believe in the concept of time. This book doesn't either.
It's Prince, but it's also a fantasy character, like the ones he would invent for us.
It's a kaleidoscope.
Prince's legacy, more even than his music, is the community he created around him.
Our duty now is to pass on this legacy onto the next generations.
This book is one of the tools to do this.
It was created thanks to the support of the Purple community, via a successful Kickstarter campaign.
