First broadcast 18th & 25th January 2003, Mica Paris tells the story of Prince.
She examines Prince's best releases of the 1980s, from the controversial funk rock of Dirty Mind to the breakthrough success of 1999 and the epoch-defining Sign o the Times.
The programme also explores Prince's work as a producer for such artists as Sinead O'Connor, The Bangles and Alicia Keys.
She explores the mystery of the most famous non-release of 1987, the Black Album and at the meaning of his favourite word of 1988, Lovesexy.
She also considers the souring of his relationship with Warner Brothers in the 1990s when he changed his name to an unpronounceable symbol and went on the road with "slave" scrawled on his face.
The programme features contributions from Chaka Khan, Alexander O'Neal, George Clinton and ex-member of The Time, Jimmy Jam, plus members of The Revolution.
