The Mountains and the Sea Reviews Prince - podcast cover

The Mountains and the Sea Reviews Prince

Christy Normanwww.spreaker.com
Josh and Christy explore the highs and the lows - the mountains and the sea, if you will - of every Prince album. Each album will get two or more episodes, as needed. The first will focus on the album tracks with a brief discussion of each song and our selections for the mountain, the sea, and the time capsule - the song that most represents the era of recording. The second and other subsequent episodes will feature information about and commentary on ancillary materials: B sides, music videos, fashion, concert videos, proteges, interesting stories and personal anecdotes from our hosts.

It'a A Toll-Free Number - 1-800-NEW-FUNK

A early 90's compilation of Paisley Park and NPG Records artists that you could only get by calling a toll-free number where - it's rumored - that Prince himself might occasionally answer the phone?
