1) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. Bought the book for my wife, she love´s prince and she just loved the book! Pictures were great!¤ 2) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. The book is very disappointing. Seems like Prince is just trying to show off his ritzy lifestyle during the 21 Nights Tour. There is very little substantive coverage of anything. I was expecting truly insightful photos and prose into the tour and/or his life. The photos are fluff. The CD has a few gems on it, but even that fails to deliver anything highly impressive. The "Whole Lotta Love" cover of Zeppelin is excellent.¤ 3) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. Prince has again proved to be the top of his game creating a magnificent time capsule capturing yet another career high. The quality of the book is great, the pictures are fantastic, the text is wonderful - and Prince...Divine.¤ 4) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. The coffee table book reminds me of that Madonna book that came out with 10 or 15 years ago but without all that nudity. The real gem is the cd inside of his England tour. While it´s not as massive as his One Night Alone box set, it´s got some great live music of his songs that are original in sound.¤ 5) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. what could better than a live PRINCE CD?
one of the best showmen in the business and this CD does not disappoint.
not all A-side singles here, so there is some new material to get into.
the photos in the book are nothing that would surprise the average Prince fan. but they are still entertaining and tastefully done.
i strongly recommend the product.¤ 6) Hardcover Book 21 Nights by Atria Books. 21 Nights--a first book by Prince and celebrated photographer Randee St. Nicholas is a stunning multimedia volume offering a rare glimpse into the life, lyrics and mystique of one of the most notable and prolific musicians of our time. This beautifully designed photographic essay flows from Prince´s sensational, unprecedented, record-breaking, sold-out 21 concerts in 21 Nights at London´s 02 Arena in 2007. Giving insight into his dueling worlds of performance and solitude, 21 Nights incorporates Prince´s evocative poetry and lyrics to new songs and other selections, and 124 full-color, sumptuous never-before-published images by Randee St. Nicholas. As part of the multi-dimensional experience, it will also include "Indigo Night," a CD--available only with the book--capturing Prince´s after-hours, live after-show sessions--rare and profound moments of musical genius.
21 Nights takes the reader from the passenger seat of a limousine zipping through the streets of London to his sleeping quarters in a luxury hotel. In between we see him and his phenomenal band of musicians, singers and dancers backstage in the make up room to onstage, bathed in purple lights and a fog of gray smoke. Like a movie-in-a-book, readers are taken on his journey from London to Prague, in a style that takes glam rock to a new level.
Then there is poetry and lyrics that reveal the heart and soul of Prince--in addition to his incomparable talent. Going beyond the catchy hook, he expresses himself on everything from the destructive forces of war, greed and superficiality the life giving energy of love, beauty, and--of course--music.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
