Ann Powers gets a night with the MPLS Genius

Well, not that kind of night. Ann Powers, a writer at the L.A. Times, just posted a full feature about her night out with Prince. It’s one of the more entertaining and comprehensive articles / interviews I’ve read about the purple man in a while.

Of note:

The website, still under construction, revealed the recognizable logo of a major big-box retailer with whom Prince is finalizing negotiations to distribute the albums. The three will hit the Web and that retailer, the artist said, “as soon as the holidays are over.”

Well? Let’s have ’em! Actually, some of my neighbors still have their Christmas lights up. Are the holidays over?

And also, Prince’s favorite show on the ol’ TV? Real Time with Bill Maher.
