Dr. Fink in a separate interview said he had a different relationship with Prince. Since he directly worked with Prince and wrote songs for him, he stayed on a little longer after the Revolution (a couple more years) with his new collaborators like Sheilia E. The thing is soon after Shelia E and the new players left after only two years, he had enough and in 1990 three years after the Revolution left Prince he left as well on his own choice. He just had a different relationship than the rest of them did.

But to hear it from the horse's mouth is a blessing. The other thing I noticed is that these are the only guys who kept it real when speaking on Prince. Most people either deify him or demonize him-- little to no middle ground, but what I got from this was, "This is the what/when/why and it's all good".

It feels nice to get some insight into why The Purple One split with The Revolution. They were obviously exhausted from dealing with a mercurial boss, albums + tours + a movie, and needed a break, but were still shocked and saddened when it all ended. I must extend The Revolution my heartfelt respect for being so thoughtful, and mature enough, to simultaneously open and frank about the tough times, but still eagerly sharing with us their own appreciation and wonderment in the good times.

It took a lot of work to not only reach that kind of success, but to do it so independent of the record business and its support. Like boiling the ocean.

@tjroelsma3 күн бұрын
@@CruceEntertainment To me it felt like Prince realised that Purple Rain was the peak of what Prince & the Revolution could achieve and at the same time it was his creativity becoming mainstream. Purple Rain made him mainstream and I believe deep down he resented that. So, the only logical thing to do for Prince was to break up The Revolution and continue with another band. And yet he always seemed to drift back to those musicians, as if he always felt the loss.

This is Prince's Family talking! They loved each other very much & you can see they still do & always will. He still worked with them & at times wanted to work with them. When I saw Wendy on PBS with him playing....the way she looked at him....she really loved him as a friend. They all went through a lot with him & each other. NPG is a Great band but, it's not the same in terms of the relationships and the fact that they were all so young then. The Revolution was not only there, they are a part of history that made Prince a STAR! He was a Genius. They always knew it. I loved Wendy's very telling comment about they often didn't know what the songs were about (including not totally Purple Rain) & they never asked him but, "HE PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE TOLD US EVEN IF WE DID". Now that's the Prince I'll always love!!!

At the end of the day Prince wanted to move forward and felt that apart from Matt Fink, Eric Leeds and Matt Blistan, who were all members of the last line up of The Revolution, could keep up with him.

I really don't think The Revolution could have ever performed the Lovesexy show.
@Takama947 жыл бұрын
Perhaps, but the studio albums suffered after that point. Yes, Sign O' The Times is incredible but even that material was somewhat informed by The Revolution, it's his album all the way but they were still around, and that affected his recording environment for the better. Prince really needed the Revolution to help him translate his sound into the 1990's evolving musical landscape.

Its simple Prince felt the Revolution where holding him back, he wanted to work with musicians that were far more skilled than them. Unfortunately the Lovesexy show is the gauge you go by, the Revolution could never had performed that show which was the pinnacle of Princes live performances. Lets not forget by 1986 Prince had started recording material in the studio on his own so he wanted a more fluid back up of a band that he could bring in (as well as individually) as he needed.

Katerina Sp Yeah, really. I was thinking the same damn thing. Did "Ivan Lendl" ever reply back & answer your question? If he really is the one & only Ivan Lendl, cool. I'm happy to know 1 of the greatest men's tennis players was into 1 of the greatest pop musicians of the 20th/21st century & dug his music & his bands.

FZ did it with all his bands. They’ve served their purpose for the time being. Neither of them was living in the past, they were looking ahead. Nothing wrong with that. Especially with the talent both had.

I got to know Boni Boyer during the Sign of the Times period and she clued me into just how amazing Prince was. Still can't believe it's over.

I feel like the Revolution was at their peak 84-86. Parade is on the same level as PR. Mountains, Parade, Sometimes It Snows are monumental songs. Just awesome. Oh yeah, Around the World In A Day album was pretty good too, that was 85?

It's easy to lose sight of the band members when someone like Prince was on his roll.It's good to see them all and relate those times that only they knew better.than anyone else.

No, _Sign "☮" the Times_ is his best work in the 80's, as far as I'm concerned. That live band during that era... my goodness. It's just the best. High energy, creativity, individuality, etcetera. There's more to their story though. I wanna know that "internal" stuff. I know my uncle and he was arrogant and often times, pigheaded. He had the right because music was seeping out through his pores and it had to be perfect... I get it.

I love Prince. Probably my favorite artist ever. But he was never really the same after Wendy & Lisa were gone.

It still would have been nice to see them reunite for a tour! I think it would have happened if Prince was still with us even if it didn’t happen until he was older say early sixties!!! Would have been one of the biggest reunion tours ever! Have The Time open for them!!! Incredible!!! Would have sold out every city!!!!

Yeah, the only band that would have been bigger had (or if) they reunited would be Talking Heads. They'd make a billion dollars.
