Prince had an insane work ethic!

Prince was perhaps one of the most motivated and prolific musicians in modern history. His productivity and desire to create were unmatched!

    I think the statement by Eric Leeds says it all. Out of all the recordings he made with Prince, about 5% made it to our ears. The vault contains a treasure trove of unreleased music that will hopefully see the light of day.

    Eric Leeds inspired me to pick up a flute when I was teen, purely for his part in the song 'Power Fantastic'. I think it's the finest, most sensitive and subtle and raw flute work I've ever heard in a pop song.

    He also tended to be overly harsh and cruel and duplicitous toward his employees, forced people around him to abide by stringent religious/cultist mores, and also treated women he worked with like disposable sex toys to exploit. He was a fine and talented artist undeniably, but he could also be a horrible man.
