Matos and Bream on Prince

Listen here to a show with Star Tribune writer Jon Bream and longtime City Pages contributor Michaelangelo Matos talking about Prince and his new album, 3121, with fans on New York Public Radio. Bream remembers Prince not meeting his eyes for years, and calling Bream a friend--until a bad review, which Prince burned on Arsenio. Above: photo of Prince's first "official" gig, at the Capri Theater in 1979 (that last link is to a b-boy/b-girl dance company at the Capri today).
