Podcasts about Purple Rain

 Dolly Parton was last on the show back in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, and we talked on the phone about her Christmas traditions, her childhood in East Tennessee, and her incredible work getting millions of kids to read through the Imagination Library. This time I got to sit down with her in person at her studio outside of Nashville, and she hasn't slowed down one bit. She told me all about her latest album, Rockstar, which features 30 rock and roll classics, from covers like Prince's “Purple Rain” and Bob Seger's “Night Moves,” to some powerful new Dolly Parton originals. She's also just released a new book called Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones, which documents more than six decades of outfits, costumes, and iconic looks from a career in the spotlight.

On The Daily Mastermind, George Wright III welcomes Grammy and five-time Tony Award-winning producer Sue Gilad for a look at what Broadway can teach entrepreneurs about turning ideas into reality. Gilad explains how growing up as a theater kid led her to producing, why strong partners should cover the skills you lack, and why a pitch only works when the project is truly in your heart and soul. She shares how out-of-town tryouts and candid audience reactions guide creative decisions, why live theater may be an antidote to AI, and how 399 rejections can lead to one yes. Gilad also breaks down the business side of art, the long-term potential of a show, and the daily question that helps her delegate: What can only we do? The conversation closes on choosing experiences over possessions and using stories to create empathy.00:00 — Broadway Failure00:35 — Meet Sue Gilad02:50 — Becoming a Broadway Producer05:35 — Cast Your Weaknesses09:05 — Pitch With Conviction09:55 — Theater's Human Advantage13:10 — Reframing Rejection15:50 — When Art Meets Commerce18:20 — Focus on Your Best Work20:55 — Experiences Over ThingsThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Bienvenue dans le dernier volet de notre saga consacrée à l'ère Purple Rain.En 1984, alors que Prince s'apprête à conquérir le monde, la machine funk qu'il a créé ultra-efficace menace de lui faire de l'ombre : The Time. Mené par l'inimitable Morris Day, le groupe incarne à l'écran les rivaux du "Kid", ceux qui osent lui tenir tête au First Avenue. Mais derrière les costumes soignés et les pas de danse millimétrés, qui tire réellement les ficelles ?Autre musicien important que l'on voit a peine un instant à l'écran : Dez Dickerson, et son Modernaire. Titre anecdotique ? Peut être pas si on en croit l'analyse de Frédéric Dumeny.Dans cet épisode fleuve, l'équipe de Violet décortique l'album culte Ice Cream Castle et tout ce qui constitue la bande originale du film Purple Rain :The Time & Ice Cream Castle : Analyse complète du troisième album du groupe, porté par les hits planétaires "Jungle Love" et "The Bird". Nous revenons sur l'implosion de la formation originale, le renvoi de Jimmy Jam et Terry Lewis, et la mainmise totale de Prince sur la production.Le Mythe "Modernaire" : Focus sur Dez Dickerson, le guitariste historique de Prince. Nous explorons l'histoire fascinante de "Modernaire", ce morceau culte qui n'apparaît que 40 secondes dans le film mais qui cache une collaboration complexe entre Dez et le Kid.Michel Colombier, la Touche Française : Hommage au génie méconnu derrière le "score" (la musique instrumentale) de Purple Rain. Comment cet arrangeur de génie a su lier les chansons de Prince pour créer un continuum sonore unique.EXCLUSIF - Purple Rain "The Musical" : Nous recevons Gwenaël, témoin privilégié qui s'est rendu à Minneapolis pour assister à la grande première de la comédie musicale adaptée du film. Décors, casting, réorchestrations : il nous livre son ressenti sans filtre sur ce show qui ambitionne de rejoindre Broadway en Mars 2027.Poursuivre l'expérience de VIOLET sur le web et les réseaux sociaux :Web et contact : www.schkopi.comInstagram : @schkopiFacebook : Schkopi et Violet - Le Podcast  Twitch : www.twitch.tv/schkopiAidez nous, en soutenant gratuitement ce podcast !Comment ?

Send in your music story!Some movies are unforgettable because of the plot. Others because of the songs. The real all-timers are the ones where the music and the story become the same thing, and that is exactly the argument we get into while ranking the top 10 greatest movie soundtracks of all time.We kick things off with real-life chaos and quick hits from the music world, including Michelle Branch returning with a new album and tour, plus a wild stat showing vinyl and vintage music players are surging again. We talk about why physical media is back, how collectors think about value, and what actually matters if you want a record player setup that sounds good without wrecking your records.From there, the mood turns heartfelt as we remember Sam Neill and what Jurassic Park meant to a whole generation. Then we swing back to music discovery, picking “Creep” by Radiohead as song of the week and trading the movie moments that introduced us to songs we still love. Finally, we debate the list itself: Footloose, Tarzan, 8 Mile, Purple Rain, School of Rock, American Pie, Shrek 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, and why Almost Famous ends up wearing the crown.Hit play, then tell us your all-time number one movie soundtrack.

Send us Fan MailRolling Stone says these are the greatest guitar solos of all time. We say: hit play, then let's argue like music nerds who actually care about what a solo is supposed to do. Anthony and Brian break down the magazine's Top 10 guitar solos and the fine print behind the ranking, from “emotion and cultural impact” to the frustrating choice to mix live versions with studio recordings. Along the way we ask the questions that make these lists worth fighting over: should a great guitar solo be memorable to casual listeners, or is it enough that musicians respect it? Does tone matter more than speed? And when does a “solo” stop being a solo and become the whole song?We go pick by pick through classics like “Stairway to Heaven,” “Eruption,” “Comfortably Numb,” “Hotel California,” and the foundational force of Chuck Berry, while also calling out the choices that feel more like Rolling Stone being provocative than definitive. The Prince debate lands center stage too, because “Purple Rain” is the clearest example of restraint, storytelling, and emotion beating pure technical difficulty. Hendrix enters the conversation with the added complication of live performance brilliance versus what belongs on a “best ever” studio-era canon.Then we flip the script and talk about what we think got overlooked, including Slash, “Free Bird,” Randy Rhoads, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dire Straits, and grunge-era greatness like Pearl Jam. We also touch on modern guitar-driven artists who are pulling rock back into the mainstream for younger listeners.

Patrick got the sniffles and then a tummy ache but OMYAC is BACK this month with part 2 in our installment of "albums from the year of our birth": Prince's 1984 smash hit "Purple Rain". Goofs are had, games are played, and who knows... maybe we'll make some friends along the way. 

Purple Rain marque un tournant décisif dans la carrière de Prince. L'album, le single et le film ont révélé au grand public un artiste que les initiés connaissaient déjà comme auteur, compositeur et musicien hors pair. Mais cette sortie mondiale a surtout exposé deux dimensions essentielles de sa mythologie princière : le performeur hors du commun et le producteur visionnaire, capable de façonner des carrières.Sur l'affiche du film, Prince n'est pas seul : Apollonia Kotero lui donne la réplique. On l'a souvent présentée comme sa compagne, alors qu'elle ne fait que remplacer à la dernière minute Vanity,  qui elle, en revanche, a réellement compté dans la vie et la légende de Prince. Apollonia restera une partenaire… mais uniquement à l'écran.Le point commun entre ces deux femmes ? Prince comme pygmalion, et révélateur de leur talent, a travers 2 albums Apollonia 6 et Vanity 6, voila de quoi il est question dans ce nouvel épisode de VIOLETPoursuivre l'expérience de VIOLET sur le web et les réseaux sociaux :Web et contact : www.schkopi.comInstagram : @schkopiFacebook : Schkopi et Violet - Le Podcast  Twitch : www.twitch.tv/schkopiAidez nous, en soutenant gratuitement ce podcast !Comment ?

atum Neill: Serious Business, Elevate Hair, and Why Hairdressers Can Change the World**He threw a rogue after party before anyone asked him to. That is just how Tatum Neill operates.Recorded live at ABS Chicago with co-host Geno Chapman, Corey closes out the weekend with Tatum Neill, co-creator of Serious Business and founder of Elevate Hair. This one covers the origin stories of both, the current state of AI and what it means for the industry, and a full New Orleans survival guide for anyone heading to Serious Business in January 2027.**What Serious Business Actually Is**Serious Business started as a business conference and evolved into something harder to name... a personal development experience that fills cups you didn't know were empty. Mel Robbins has been there. Brene Brown has been there. But Tatum's advice is to just show up without looking at the lineup because the speakers always end up being exactly what you need. January 16-18, 2027 at the Sanger Theater in New Orleans.**Elevate Hair**It started as a salon jam session. Tatum missed the education lifestyle after years working in New York and started inviting the salon across the street to come hang out. Beer, wine, hair, music. Then he went rogue and threw an after party for Serious Business. Then it grew. Now Elevate is a brand neutral stage show with no talking, no sales, just artists in a full flow state with a DJ running the room. The biggest one drew 1300 people to First Avenue in Minneapolis... the venue where Prince filmed Purple Rain. The tape from Prince's last soundcheck is still on the back wall. Elevate Orlando is May 30th. More cities to follow.**AI and Where It Is Actually Headed**Tatum went to South by Southwest and came back thinking about the printing press and early film. Every disruptive technology looks clunky at first because we use it the way we used the thing before it. The first movies looked like plays. The first recordings were just a band in a room. We are at that same early stage with AI... using it like the old thing instead of discovering what it can actually become. For hairdressers the most immediate practical application is consultations. Show the client what they would look like with the cut or color before you start. In real time. On their face.**The New Orleans Survival Guide**Eat the gumbo at the airport before you leave the terminal. Emeril's is in one wing, John Besh's restaurant in the other. Get that base in before you hit the hotel. Your first drink will be a triple so treat it accordingly. Order a Dong Phuong king cake now because they sell out before January 6th every year. And know that Serious Business lands in the middle of Carnival season so there will be parades that Friday and Saturday night if you stay the full weekend.---Find Tatum at @tatumneill on all platforms.

Send Steve a Text MessageYou can spend 30 years with a guitar in your hands and still feel like you're guessing. That's why this conversation with Perry lands so hard. He grew up in Casper, Wyoming with music in the house, built a band in the early 80s, and even got the kind of wild, last-minute call every guitarist dreams about: his group stepped in as a backup band for Blue Oyster Cult when another act didn't show. Amazing story, but it also revealed something deeper. Surviving a gig is not the same as understanding your instrument.Perry takes us through Arizona stage tech work, a move to Alaska, an electronics degree, and a 30-year career with the FAA. When retirement hits, the desire to really learn guitar comes roaring back but the local scene feels tense and unwelcoming. So he makes a different choice: an online guitar academy built around structure, coaching, and a supportive guitar community.We talk about the shift from playing by ear and memorizing parts to understanding chord structures, smoother chord changes, key changes, and why ear training becomes the next mountain to climb. Perry shares how much more confident he feels now, how jam sessions turn lessons into real music, and why songs like As My Guitar Gently Weeps and Purple Rain are perfect vehicles for growth.If you're an adult guitar learner chasing real progress, this one is for you.

There's a game Cava Menzies plays with her students. She asks each of them to say a word — snowfall, nightmare, dragons — and then she translates it into music on the piano right in front of them. Every time, something magical happens in the room. In the tenth and final episode of our Wired to Create series, Cava — musician, educator, and founding faculty at Oakland School for the Arts — makes the case that music isn't a talent reserved for the few. It's a birthright we've somehow talked ourselves out of using. Please share this episode with anyone in your life who has decided music isn't for them. Check out Cava and her OSA students singing Purple Rain on stage with Coldplay's Chris Martin HERE. This episode was made possible by a grant from the Walton Family Foundation.

Welcome to "Travel to Listen," a new Unpacked series hosted by veteran music journalist Tim Chester. Over four episodes rolling out every other week, Tim takes us into the cities where music is more than entertainment—it's the shortcut to a place's soul. This week, he heads to Minneapolis to hear how a community center, a cold climate, and a once-in-a-generation genius combined to create one of the most distinctive sounds in American music, plus how the city is celebrating a decade since Prince's passing. In this episode How the Minneapolis sound emerged from the Great Migration, housing segregation, rock radio, and a community center called The Way, where a teenage Prince jammed alongside Morris Day and Terry Lewis Why Paul Peterson (dubbed St. Paul by Prince himself) believes the Minneapolis sound is joyous, funky, and built to last, and how his supergroup, the Minneapolis Funk All-Stars, is carrying it forward The story of historian Kristen Zschomler: how grief over Prince's death led her to track 50+ locations across Minneapolis where he lived, worked, and recorded, and her ongoing mission to get them on the National Register of Historic Places What Prince mastered at his childhood home in North Minneapolis. Plus, why Sound 80, the studio where he cut his first demo tapes at 19, was the launchpad for everything that followed How to experience Minneapolis in 2026: from Paisley Park to First Avenue, Bunkers Music Bar to the Dakota, and the five-day Prince Celebration festival in June marking the 10th anniversary of Prince's death Meet this week's guests Paul Peterson is a musician, songwriter, and former Prince collaborator, dubbed "St. Paul" by the Purple One himself. He was a member of The Time and The Family, appeared in Purple Rain, and is now the leader of the Minneapolis Funk All-Stars, an all-star alumni supergroup dedicated to keeping the Minneapolis sound alive. Kristen Zschomler⁠ is a historian and co-founder of the International Center 4 Prince Studies. She gives guided tours of Prince's Minneapolis and created Sound Around Tours, a self-guided audio tour app. She has researched and documented over 50 locations tied to Prince's life and work, and has successfully advocated for two of them to be added to the National Register of Historic Places. Guest host ⁠Tim Chester⁠ is a freelance travel and culture writer who has spent the past 20 years exploring the world through the lens of music. His reporting has appeared in NME, Spin, and Afar, and his travels have taken him from Manhattan to Malawi and Beijing to Berlin in search of the festivals, scenes, and stories that reveal a city's soul.

Here's how to do it like a fan. Start here: the essential stops Paisley Park—Prince's home, recording complex, and creative sanctuary in Chanhassen, just outside the city. Now a museum and events venue. Prince's childhood home—the North Minneapolis house where he mastered the piano, decoded albums note by note, and became Prince. Sound 80 Studios—the recording studio where a 19-year-old Prince cut the demo tapes that landed him his Warner Brothers contract. First Avenue—the venue Prince made famous in Purple Rain (he also recorded the song there, performing it live for the first time on that stage). Hear live music Bunkers Music Bar & Grill—the historic North Loop spot where Dr. Mambo's Combo plays every Sunday and Monday night. The Dakota—an intimate downtown jazz club with a packed calendar every night of the week. The Green Room—the venue where St. Paul and the Minneapolis Funk All Stars frequently play Plan for June Celebration 2026—the annual Prince estate event runs June 3–7 this year as a five-day gathering with concerts, dance parties, and unseen footage. The International Center 4 Prince Studies has programming June 1–2 as well, and a new community museum opening in North Minneapolis that flips the curatorial lens: instead of Prince's instruments, it collects the stories of the people he touched. Artists to watch L.A. Buckner and Big Homie David Feily Cory Wong Dylan Salfer Chris Lawrence Alex Rossi Nur-D Nunnabove Up next on Travel to Listen Tim heads to Southern California to explore the spacey, grungy desert rock scene—and to find out there's a lot more to the region than Coachella.

Welcome to what will effectively serve as my newest installment, Peak Dust. No theme or general direction other than the slowed and throwed Drake run, which was the idea that I referred to have had last episode. The One-Take-Timmy manual analog DJ Screwification of Purple Rain is probably my favorite portion of this episode. This is another late installment but I had family in town for a week, we went to a Western Conference Finals game. Got to see Wembanyamcheese. Today I had to bust up some local Pokemon hotspots and reclaim some lost territory over the week. Finally here I am to deliver the goods to ye the patient populous of the interwebs. Thank you, as always for being here. I'll be here next weekYour Host with the Most,DJ Witwicka Juan Don

Send Kevin a Text MessageMark Canton, producer of 300, Immortals, Men in Black, Air Force One, and My Best Friend's Wedding, former President of Worldwide Production at Warner Bros., and former Chairman of Columbia Pictures and Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Companies, joins host Kevin Goetz for a conversation about a career defined by passion and instinct. From delivering mail on the Warner Bros. lot as a college student to greenlighting some of Hollywood's most beloved films, Canton reflects on the legends he learned from, the risks he took, and why he still smells the circus every time he walks onto a sound stage.Queens, New York, and Family (02:34): Canton traces his love of film to a father who survived being shot down over France in WWII, won an Oscar for a short film on Van Gogh, and went on to do publicity for Hitchcock and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and to a mother who was a published poet. The movies, he says, were always destiny.Learning from the Greats on Papillon (15:22): Working for director Franklin Schaffner in Jamaica and living between the houses of Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman, Canton learned what it meant to commit to a film.From the Warner Bros. Mail Room to Running the Studio (20:31): Canton traces his rise from UCLA film student to head of Worldwide Production at Warner Bros., sharing stories about the Vacation franchise, Caddyshack, and Lethal Weapon.Taking the Helm at Columbia Pictures (39:22): Recruited by Peter Guber and Jon Peters, Canton became Chairman of Columbia Pictures and later oversaw Columbia TriStar. He reflects on the team he assembled and the record-breaking run that followed, including Jerry Maguire, My Best Friend's Wedding, Bad Boys, and Air Force One.The Art of the Difficult Screening (47:51): Canton recounts two defining test screening moments: a chaotic preview of Scorsese's The Age of Innocence in a New Jersey bowling alley, and a tough audience response to Luc Besson's Léon: The Professional that led to an ultimatum and a reworked film that became a modern classic.The Cable Guy and No Regrets (50:43): Canton defends paying Jim Carrey $17 million and notes what history confirmed: the film launched Ben Stiller's directing career, introduced Jack Black, Owen Wilson, and Judd Apatow. He also recalls his affectionate standoff with Mike Nichols over the ending of Wolf.What Keeps Audiences Coming Back (54:50): Canton argues that what fills theaters today is the same thing that made Purple Rain a phenomenon: the feeling of a live, communal, irreplaceable experience.Host: Kevin GoetzGuest: Mark CantonProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Mark Canton:Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_CantonIMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004799/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markcanton/?hl=enFor more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest film critic and author Willow Catelyn Maclay discuss the iconic pioneering funk, rock and pop musician (and androgenous sex symbol) Prince with a double feature of his screen debut in the quasi-autobiographical rock opera/concert musical PURPLE RAIN (1984) + his directorial debut UNDER THE CHERRY MOON (1986), a strange post-modern pastiche of Old Hollywood rom-coms and European art films.
