Can you imagine being in that room with Andre and Morris and Prince. How could anyone have predicted that the skinny dude on guitar would become one of the most succesful and influential artists of the coming decade?

Great video, but what I found interesting is that Prince didn't keep Morris as a drummer. Never really knew why Prince hired Bobby Z. According to Morris his dream was to be a drummer not a singer. It was Prince that talked him into fronting The Time and singing...
@rinse-esnir4010

What I understood from Morris his story is that Morris his mother moved away to Detroit, and Morris went with her. And so they lost contact. And when the first album of Prince came out, Morris decided to hook up with Prince again.
Here are the questions we all have in our heads- where are all those early recordings? Are they in the vault? Did they get lost in time?

Ok. I got a Prince 2nd hand story. It's from my brother's former guitar player. The guitar player ends-up playing w Prince. One night Prince breaks a guitar string. 'My brothers guitar ' player TAKES OVER and rips the guitar solo !! And really knocks it out-of the park!! Prince comes back up...gets in his face..and demeaning says.. THAT WONT happen AGAIN.
David Z is a MPLS gem! Love Prince but if you take David Z out the puzzle we don't have much!

The amazing part is Prince isn't the shortest guy in the pic around six minutes in... 🤣
David, of course, is the older brother of Robert B. 'Bobby Z' Rivkin, who was Prince's original drummer ....
Im kinda surprised the Replacements were not mentioned in this interview.
"So he just wanted greatness out of people?" "...No, he was just being an asshole." lol
I wonder if this studio is close to Norms rare guitars. I would love to do a California tour and see all the historical music sights. This studio would definitely be top on the list.

Susan def was in the payroll. He put Peggy through hell. Susan too. He would pick one person…And he’d bring up their weaknesses, and ride on it. And come down on you. It was bad
That David z guy, I think I heard him on several interviews on prince too, and his comments were negative. Same subject, so why does he talk about someone he holds a grudge against or doesn't like or respect? You're not hurting Prince… No matter, I still feel Prince one of the greatest musical energies ever.

He’s telling his 3 decade experience with him. If it isn’t all positive… then he can’t talk? He literally was Prince producer / engineer and got him signed with Warner Bros
The real question is would he be saying all of this stuff if Prince was still alive because I don't think that he would.
I thought Prince's first recording session was with Sonny Thompson, before this, for The Family. The track was later released as this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4Z-uq6dprTHk9o.html

Three ppl talking? Uh…. Just the two recording engineers who worked with Prince everyday, plus were discussing Princes 1st ever recording session. Didn’t imply Prince was singing a song
The Purple Rain era was great. No surprise hearing he was overly hard on people. Highly creative but flawed character. Manipulative, controlling; narcissistic with a side order of Napoleon complex.
Not the best interviewer....When the engineer was getting going talking about the first "session" in LA with all of Warner Bros. producers, he was about to go somewhere interesting and the cat asked him an innocuous question that made the engineer lose the thread...he never regained the thread of the story, "You were there too?!", and that's all she wrote...Too bad. As an interviewer one has to know when to keep one's mouth shut and let the subject feel free to speak. Let the people speak!!
Sorry, but Prince has to be one of the most overrated artist of all time.. Please list his greatest top 5 songs He could not sing and his music seems all Processed and gimmicky

Greatest 5 songs in what category? Songs he did for himself, or songs he recorded for other artists under a pseudonym? Also which genre? Which decade? There's no way you've heard enough of Princes songs for your statement to be relevant.
