Acerca de esta escucha
A memoir by Morris Day of The Time centering around his lifelong relationship and association with Prince
"A vital, illuminating, and wildly entertaining autobiography." (Billboard)
"Great book! Great storytelling!" (Lenny Kravitz)
"Lean, slick, cooler than Santa Claus, and surprisingly tender, this book not only traces Day's history in Minneapolis funk, but doubles as an intimate recollection of his time with Prince." (Ben Greenman, author of Dig if You Will the Picture)
Brilliant composer, smooth soul singer, killer drummer, and charismatic band leader Morris Day has been a force in American music for the past four decades. In On Time, the renowned funkster looks back on a life of turbulence and triumph, chronicling his creative process with an explosive prose that mirrors his intoxicating music.
A major theme throughout the book is Morris' enduring friendship and musical partnership with Prince, from their early days on the Minneapolis scene to selling out stadiums and duking it out as rivals in Purple Rain. Eventually, Morris went on to release four albums with a new band of his very own, The Time; however, before long, increasing tensions between the two performers set them down separate paths. Through the years, the fierce brotherly love between Morris and Prince kept bringing them back together - until pride, ego, and circumstance interfered. Two months before Prince's untimely death, the two finally started to make amends. But Morris never could have imagined it would be the last time he'd ever see his friend again.

Prince was a musical genius, one of the most beloved, accomplished, and acclaimed musicians of our time. The Beautiful Ones is the story of how Prince became Prince - a first-person account of a kid absorbing the world around him and then creating a persona, an artistic vision, and a life, before the hits and fame that would come to define him. This work is not just a tribute to an icon, but an original and energizing literary work in its own right, full of Prince’s ideas and vision, his voice and image - his undying gift to the world.

Fat Joe is a hip-hop legend, but this is not a tale of celebrity; it is the story of Joseph Cartagena, a kid who came of age in the South Bronx during its darkest years of drugs, violence, and abandonment, and how he navigated that traumatizing landscape until he found—through art, friendship, luck, and will—a rocky path to a different life. This memoir, written in Joe’s own intensely compelling voice, moves with the momentum of pulp fiction, but underneath the tragicomedy and riveting tales of the streets and the industry is a thought-provoking story about a generation of survivors.

Neal Karlen was the only journalist Prince granted in-depth press interviews to for more than a dozen years, from before Purple Rain to when the artist changed his name to an unpronounceable glyph. Karlen interviewed Prince for three Rolling Stone cover stories, wrote “3 Chains o’ Gold”, Prince’s “rock video opera”, as well as the star’s last testament. According to Prince's former fiancée, Susannah Melvoin, Karlen was “the only reporter who made Prince sound like what he really sounded like”.

Prince was a musical genius, one of the most beloved, accomplished, and acclaimed musicians of our time. The Beautiful Ones is the story of how Prince became Prince - a first-person account of a kid absorbing the world around him and then creating a persona, an artistic vision, and a life, before the hits and fame that would come to define him. This work is not just a tribute to an icon, but an original and energizing literary work in its own right, full of Prince’s ideas and vision, his voice and image - his undying gift to the world.

In the summer of 1981, Mark Brown was a teenager working at a 7-11 store when he wasn't rehearsing with his high school band, Phantasy. Come fall, Brown, now called BrownMark, was onstage with Prince at the Los Angeles Coliseum, opening for the Rolling Stones in front of 90,000 people. Raw, wry, real, this book takes us from his musical awakening as a boy in Minneapolis to the cold call from Prince at 19, from touring the world with The Revolution and performing in Purple Rain to inking his own contract with Motown.

In this intimate biography of the Prince of Soul, David Ritz provides a candid look at a star and a friend. Ritz had been collaborating with Marvin Gaye on his story for several years before the singer's tragic death and had conducted a series of extraordinary interviews in which Gaye discussed his deepest secrets. What emerges is a full-scale portrait of a charming but tortured artist, a brilliant singer with a divided soul.

On Time By Morris Day, David Ritz is Excellent!
This is a realistic story about the friendship, and musical collaboration between, Prince and Morris Day. Morris, and Prince knew each other for decades. Music brought them together, and as you will see it also tore them apart. I appreciate, the honesty, and how the reader actually hears how Prince would have answered, Morris.
I am a former concert promoter with, Music CEO
William "Pablo" Davis. He managed The Deele,
Midnight Starr, and we promoted numerous artist.
I met, Morris Day, and The Time. I was introduced to, Prince by, William "Bootsy" Collins. We remained friends until his passing.
Morris Day, is a very talented artist, and you may be surprised to learn how controlling, Prince could be.
At the end of the day I like this book. Morris, didn't exploit their friendship as so many others who have collaborated with, Prince have done.
I encourage everyone who wants to know the truth about their music, friendship, and the real, Prince to listen to this book.

Great Book
I feel it would have been better to hear Morris Day read his own book. That would added even more power to the story and message.

"Brotherly Love"
I enjoyed hearing of the history of Morris and Prince in this type of conversational setting. I didn't get it at first, but after a few chapters I understood why the story is told this way. The ups and downs their relationship shared over the decades stood the test of time.

Great behind the scenes.
It is a little bit of a strange premise as Morris talks to an imaginary Prince throughout the book. However, I see it as a tribute to his on again, off again relationship with the Purple One.
I only wish Morris had done the narration himself.
