We are wrapping up coverage of both Times Squared by Eric Leeds and, consequently, Diamonds and Pearls SDE. It's been a long, fun, funky ride!Visit us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/Twitter… X… Twix: @TMATSPodcastEmail: TMATSPodcast@gmail.com

Mr. Christopher and special guests ring in 2025 with the longest Funkatopia Live show on record at 5 hours. We talk about what was wrought in 2024, upcoming Prince events, and we also welcome Eric Rogers (Paisley 5 and Dime), Eric Leeds, Greg Boyer, Damon Dickson, Sheila from the Brides of Funkenstein, DuJuan Elliot of the Blackshires, and TC Ellis.

Last time we covered the first half of the first Eric Leeds and Prince collaboration album that WASN'T Madhouse: Times Squared. The back half of this album has some surprises and we talk about them in this episode. Visit us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/Twitter… X… Twix: @TMATSPodcastEmail: TMATSPodcast@gmail.com

Eric Leeds and Prince collaborated on a bunch of projects, including Eric's unexpected solo album, Times Squared. Vault material thought to become a third Madhouse album didn't sound “Madhouse” enough and thus this funky jazz album featuring the saxophonist and flautist came to be. Visit us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/Twitter… X… Twix: @TMATSPodcastEmail: TMATSPodcast@gmail.com

Minneapolis funk pioneer, St. Paul Peterson (https://www.stpaulmusic.com/) announces that his new single, “You Got 2 Love,” will be released on January 4, 2019. “I’ve been so busy making records with fDeluxe and Eric Leeds, I realized that I hadn’t made music for myself for years!” stated Peterson. “This new song “You Got 2 Love” is an up-tempo song I wrote and produced with my nephew, Jason Peterson DeLaire. He and I were talking about a concept for this incredible track we had come up with, and we both wanted it to be something uplifting and something funky. Minneapolis Funk is ingrained in me, so I really didn’t have a choice but to tip my hat to the sound on this production. It just so happens that artists like Bruno Mars and producers like Mark Ronson are inspired by it as well. Thankfully, they’ve reintroduced fans to the funk, and this has totally inspired me to write a new record.”  St. Paul is the youngest member of The Peterson Family; known as the First Family of Music in MN. Prince discovered Paul aka “St. Paul,” at the age of 17. He enlisted him as a keyboard player in “The Time” for the movie “Purple Rain.” Paul took the lead vocalist spot in the Prince produced group “The Family”, before becoming a solo artist and scoring hits for MCA and Atlantic Records.    In 2018, St. Paul was the musical director and front man for “Nothing Compares 2 Prince,” which sold out 2 nights at the Sydney Opera House.

Use promo code LOVECITY to listen to the full series of Love City with Toure. This is a show that will explore the life story of our favorite cultural items and ask what are the things we love and why do we love them and who are the major influencers who led these things to cultural prominence. In episode one, we take a look at PRINCE. Why did everyone fall in love with Prince in 1984? Purple Rain was the #1 album and the #1 movie. Before that year Prince had never sold more than 2 million albums. In 1984 he sold 16 million. What made the difference? We’ll talk to a slew of his friends and bandmates—including his guitarist Dez Dickerson, his saxophonist Eric Leeds, his engineer Susan Rogers, and singer Susannah Melvoin, the first woman he got engaged to. She tells the story of how he proposed. Also, an amazing story about Prince, Elizabeth Taylor, and a courageous audio technician from Quincy, Massachusetts.

Programmet om Prince tar avstamp i det genre- och könsöverskridande albumet Dirty mind där Prince förvandlades till den rockstjärna som han hela tiden visste att han var. En hyllning av Mats Nileskär, Jesse Johnson, Sheila E, Sly Stone, Morris Day, Jimmy Jam, Larry Graham, Chaka Khan, Alan Leeds, Eric Leeds, D'Angelo, Ty Dolla Sign, Raphael Saadiq, Teena Marie, Sa-Ra, Marvin Gaye, Miguel, Levi Seacer Jr, Hiatus Kayote, Questlove, Mavis Staples, Tony Silvester, Al McKay och Bilal. I timme två; Prince-lärjungen Dam-Funk, och nästa vecka; Prince förebild Sly Stone.Mats Nileskär om de otaliga försöken att få intervjua stjärnan: - Flera gånger försökte jag få till det med artisten som gjorde allt för att undvika bandade intervjuer. Och då menar jag allt. Enda sedan jag spelade Prince första gången i P3 1978, debutsingeln "Soft and Wet". Närmast var jag kanske sommaren 2011 då Prince spelade på Way Out West. Det var riggat för intervju, men i sista stund valde Prince att istället cykla ut i Göteborgsstadsdelen Majorna. Jag mötte nog Prince när D'Angelo gläntade på dörren till sin själ.Prince var ändå återkommande i Mats Nileskärs intervjuer med framträdande musikpersonligheter. Nu hedrar de ikonen i ett specialavsnitt av P3 Soul. 

Keyboardist, record producer, and songwriter Doctor Fink won two Grammy Awards in 1985 for the motion picture soundtrack album for “Purple Rain”, in which he appeared. He received another Grammy in 1986 for the album “Parade: Music from the Motion Picture ‘Under the Cherry Moon'”, the eighth studio album by Prince and The Revolution. Matt also has two American Music Awards for “Purple Rain”, which has sold over 25 million copies worldwide since its release. Doctor Fink continued working with Prince until 1991 as an early member of the New Power Generation. He was also a member of the jazz-fusion band, Madhouse, which was produced by Prince and Eric Leeds, Prince's saxophonist. Notable work with Prince includes co-writing credits on the songs “Dirty Mind”, “Computer Blue”, “17 Days”, “America”, and “It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night,” as well as performing credits on the albums “Dirty Mind”, “Controversy”, “1999″, “Purple Rain”, “Around the World in a Day”, “Parade”, “Sign ‘O' the Times”, “The Black Album”, and “Lovesexy”.
