Barry first found music when he borrowed his sister's record collection when he was about eight and was hooked. When Caroline started it was a new beginning, and he listened to all the stations, but Caroline was his favourite by far. Later he became a singer in a band, then started doing discos when he was 18.

This year, Prince's powerful backing band The Revolution are touring to celebrate the legacy they share with the late icon, and will be playing Emo's Austin on December 29th. And one key member who will be performing live is Matt Fink, better known as 'Dr. Fink.' The keyboardist, always clad in signature scrubs, was instrumental in crafting many Prince classics, co-writing tracks like 'Dirty Mind' and 'Computer Blue,' and played on classic Prince albums including 'Controversy,' '1999,' 'Purple Rain,' 'Sign O' The Times' and 'Parade.' On today's podcast episode, Fink and I discuss why the band decided to reunite after Prince's death, the challenges of performing the band's iconic material without their frontman/mastermind/multi-instrumentalist, plans for potential new material, memories of the band's 80's heyday (including filming Purple Rain) and much more. *This episode is sponsored by pocketcasts.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/slis/support
