Whoops! It just showed up. This book weighs a ton! Yeah the quality of this book is pretty. My cover has mark on it. Binding definitely won't hold from regular use. I love photography and the images are nice, but at initial scan there are Waaaaay too many filler images.

Not that it wasn't good but not anything I need to see twice(not like the Lenny Kravitz coffee table book which I continue to drool over)...loved the CD though! -P <Moderator: Besides Prince's performances I can't think of another Prince product I bought in the last few years that I revisit frequently. He doesnt seem to care about any of his products. It's just what kind of money he can get from us suckers... -Derek> In a message dated 10/1/2008 3:42:51 P.M.

Here's mine (shared with a couple of groups): I love the man, always have and will. But I am disappointed in the book. It seems poorly made because of the way the book's binding interfers with many otherwise wonderful photos. Why wouldn't that have been addressed in editing? It's not artistic; it's just bad. The pics of London and the venue etc are a nice touch and are really beautiful, but I don't appreciate so many photos of people I don't know or care to have pictures of. I am a hardcore fan, as some of you know, but the book doesn't move me. Sure, a couple of pics of Prince are amazing....But the problems are significant. IMHO. On another subject, I continue to be amazed, however, at the man's selective memory. Or put another way, the tendancy he has to reinvent history. By my estimation this is his 4th book, not his first. Robyn <Moderator: I probably won't see mine till tomorrow so I guess I will comment on the book itself then. I have already heard the CD and I am enjoyed performance... I just feel Marva King and that other chick get way too much time on it. I don't really care for Prince's Protigies nowadays and wish most of them would just go away. I don't see their add value give to his overall performance. I guess it's just nice to accessories... -Derek> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- NewPowerNewYork Mailing List website: Www.NPNY.Org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe?
