Episode 5: Author Duane Tudahl talks about writing the definitive account of Prince's Parade and Sign O The Times studio sessions. "Prince could release an album every year for 100 years...", he tells us.

How can U just leave me standing? ...in search of Prince Rogers Nelson.

Duane Tudahl has spent his career working on TV series, but also producing numerous documentaries and music videos.

He is a writer and researcher, who has contributed many articles for Uptown magazine – the key Prince fanzine – for 12 years, from 1991 to 2003.

In recent years he received praise for his books documenting Prince’s studio sessions in the 1980s, which are extensive in their research, and give further insight into one of the most fascinating periods in popular music.
