The professional-shot clip from the 1995 Versace show is particularly outstanding; while not officially supervised by Prince, it features brilliant editing—clearly the work of someone who truly understood the material—with perfectly timed cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Hunting for Prince's Vault\" (a 2015 BBC Radio documentary), a 1981 taped interview, and \"Purple Reign: The Prince Story\" are audio-only tracks.

Please note that while song titles are sometimes displayed, they may occasionally be incorrect or appear slightly ahead of the actual performance; however, for the most part, they are accurate. ● *Purple Reign: The Story of Prince* is a BBC-produced radio documentary narrated by singer Mica Paris. It explores the life and musical career of Prince, offering a multi-dimensional portrait of his profound influence through interviews with key associates and a showcase of his iconic songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e● *Hunting For Prince's Vault*, a BBC radio documentary broadcast in 2015, centers on interviews conducted by host Mobeen Azhar with individuals who worked closely with Prince.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSusan Rogers\u003cbr\u003eRogers reveals that she was the one who created the \"Vault.\" When she joined Prince’s team during the production of *Purple Rain* in 1983, she was alarmed to find a vast collection of his recorded tapes scattered about—with some even going missing. To safeguard his legacy, she took the initiative to contact the various studios he had previously used, gathering all the unreleased tapes into one central location—a \"vault\"—which she established. She provides a vivid description of the physical structure, noting that the actual vault was equipped with a heavy-duty, bank-grade security door—complete with a large wheel—designed to withstand even a tornado. She also shares a poignant and shocking story: when Prince recorded \"Wally\"—a ballad into which he had poured all the pain of a personal heartbreak—Rogers was convinced it was the greatest work of his career. Yet, at Prince’s firm insistence, the master tape was overwritten and erased on the spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHans-Martin Buff\u003cbr\u003eAn account from the man who curated the Vault.\u003cbr\u003eTasked with overseeing the vault at Paisley Park during the 1990s, Buff provides an eyewitness account of what the interior of the Vault was actually like. The sheer scale of the collection was revealed: a space—roughly the size of an average British dining room—was packed floor-to-ceiling with rows of shelving, stacked two or three layers deep with unreleased master tapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatt “Dr.” Fink: The early creative routine of a man who lived and breathed music.\u003cbr\u003eFink shared an anecdote from the grueling tours of the 1980s: while the rest of the band took their days off to relax at Disney World, Prince would seclude himself on his hotel balcony, where he composed the classic track “When You Were Mine.” Whether it was late at night after a show or while on the road, the young Prince was a relentless workaholic, living solely to give form to the constant stream of ideas pouring from his mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlan Leeds: The truth behind the rights battle and a candid admission from Prince.\u003cbr\u003eFrom his perspective as a manager, Leeds recounted the intense, bitter conflict in the early 1990s with the record label Warner Bros. over the rights to his own work. He shared a vivid memory of a moment when, driven by anger and despair, Prince told him directly: “If it’s going to cause this much trouble, one day I’m going to burn everything in that vault to the ground with my own two hands.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonny Thompson:\u003cbr\u003eThe roots of a genius—unchanged since boyhood.\u003cbr\u003eHaving played music with Prince in their hometown of Minneapolis since they were teenagers, Thompson testified to the origins of Prince’s genius: even back in their amateur days—long before the fame and fortune—Prince was already writing songs 24 hours a day, at a pace no one else could possibly match. Speaking from the unique perspective of a close friend, one interviewee explained that for Prince, the act of creating a song and tucking it away in a vault was not a calculated business move for the future; rather, it was as natural and instinctive as breathing—a habit ingrained in him since childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCat Glover\u003cbr\u003eDetails on the treasures lying dormant in the vault, unheard by anyone\u003cbr\u003eGlover revealed the existence of a \"lost\" hip-hop track titled \"Cornbread Rappers\"—a song recorded during her time with Prince at Paisley Park that was shelved and never released. During the interview, she even recited some of the rap lyrics from the track, excitedly noting that the vault contains countless other hidden gems, including experimental works in genres the world has yet to encounter, as well as remnants of collaborations with artists like Madonna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEric Leeds\u003cbr\u003eWhy didn’t Prince release his \"perfect\" songs?\u003cbr\u003eHaving worked extensively with Prince on numerous recording sessions and horn arrangements, Leeds analyzed the artist’s unique psychology: for Prince, the greatest pleasure lay in the act of *completing* a song—the moment it was finished, his interest in it vanished. Whether a track would be released, sold, or become a hit was secondary; once he had manifested the sounds in his head onto tape, his objective was 100 percent achieved. Consequently, many masterpieces were simply left behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this documentary so remarkable is that, even though the filmmaker, Azar, never met Prince in person, he skillfully pieced together testimonies from these collaborators like a complex puzzle. In doing so, he definitively proves the truth behind the legend: that behind those vault doors lies a legacy so vast that, even if Prince were to pass away today, there would be enough unreleased material to put out one new album every year for the next 100 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"purpletown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761378001195,"sku":null,"price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0846\/6475\/files\/1_7a5f397b-05f7-4d75-8774-5cd7642373c2.jpg?v=1792018885","url":"https:\/\/wmlshopjapan.com\/de\/products\/prince-unofficial-artage-2dvdr","provider":"WML Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
