Welcome to our 6th series of #PrinceTwitterThread.
There's a gentle autumn breeze blowin’ which can only mean one thing - this one’s on #theFamily.
Autumn plays the music, baby & over the next few weeks, the Family will be our autumnal focus.
Let’s set the scene…it’s 1985!

Madhouse “8” — Jazz Side of the Purple Mind
1987 - P took a sharp left turn.
No vocals. No hit singles. No glitter.
Just riddim, mood, & mystery.
P called it Madhouse. The album: 8.
8 tracks. 8 numbers. Infinite funk-jazz freedom.
A secret project that still sounds future.

In 1991 we were introduced to the New Power Generation and later this week we will be reintroduced to the band with the release of the Diamonds And Pearls Super Deluxe Edition. So it’s a good time to look back at how this band came to be… a short #PrinceTwitterThread. 🧵

Now this is what you call an informative and entertaining #PrinceTwitterThread 😍
Prince and The Rolling Stones and all the times their music crossed 💜
9 Oct 2023
On this day, October 9th, in 1981 Prince performed as one of the opening acts for the Rolling Stones in Los Angeles. We all know what happened, but with a new Stones album coming up later this month we'd figured we'd do a short thread about the times their paths crossed.

Today in 1991 Prince was going to play his biggest European show to date. 75.000 fans from all over Europe were expected at Blenheim Palace in the UK on August 31, 1991. And then… it got cancelled. What happened? Here’s a #PrinceTwitterThread about the show that never was. 🧵

30 years ago this week the 'Glam Slam Ulysses' stage production opened 'in glam-o-rama' at the Glam Slam West club in Los Angeles. It's an often forgotten but still quite interesting part of Prince history. So let's dive in with a little #PrinceTwitterThread. 🧵

Fun #PrinceTwitterThread about the Batman era by @Getintothis.
20 Jun 2023
On this day in 1989, Prince released the soundtrack to Tim Burton's Batman.
It contains the hit singles Batdance, Electric Chair, Scandalous and Partyman.
Partyman was inspired by Prince's meeting with Jack Nicholson on the film set. 🥳💜

I did not see the guitar panel. But in previous Celebrations, in my own #PrinceTwitterThread and through the work of folks like @polishedsolid and @Duane_Tudahl I have found some of the most arcane details of how Prince created music fascinating.
