Prince - Imp of the Perverse
Barney Hoskyns
Originally published in 1988, and charting the first decade of Prince’s meteoric rise, Prince: Imp of the Perverse, was the earliest book to explore Prince’s prodigious and eccentric talent.
Prince Rogers Nelson stood alone as a musical maestro amongst his peers, and proved you could do it all yourself: write, play, perform, produce and take control of your career. He took American pop by the scruff of the neck and shaped it to his own mercurial ends.
This contemporary account examines the genius, and reveals truths, behind the many masks.
