商品簡介
This study offers thoughtful, provocative analysis by two academics, who are also avid fans. Hawkins (musicology, U. of Oslo, Norway) and Niblock (journalism, Brunel U., UK) write engagingly about the sensibilities and style of the star himself and his audience, and the enduring qualities of his creativity and appeal. They don't duplicate the abundance of details about Prince's life and performances that can easily be found on the internet and elsewhere but instead, as they state in the introduction, "...return time and again to what makes our subject so profound. Why does Prince open up a special space for reconfiguring norms and attitudes?" Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
