    Susan needs to be given the keys to the Vault and given free reign to get Prince's music out to the world with integrity, aligned with the value system she refers to in this interview. Only she can do this. Let it happen Tyka!!! 3>

      I agree. She's appears to be honest and has history with Prince. She knows where all the golden egg goodies are!!$ Someone like her can just reach in and touch 'em. Plus they are already complete - just still on tape.

    I heard something that I never heard before in the song "Around the World In A Day". After she introduced the song I listened to it before continuing with this video. She talked about the song's importance related to a new awakening musically for Prince. Upon playing the song for the thousandth time (no exaggeration) I realized that his initial wail in the beginning may have purposely been there to represent (a baby's cry) the rebirth of a new Prince.
    A very enjoyable two plus hours of listening. Thank you Dr. Susan Rogers. I also realized I've lived on Prince Street since the age of 9 upon hearing Controversy. Thank you for everything

  • @ElleciaADouglas
    @ElleciaADouglas 7 лет назад +37

    This interview was EPIC. Dr. Rogers really helped to me to understand why there may be so much material in "The Vault" at Paisley Park. Prince had so many ideas and he executed them as they were conceived. I thought that it was an ego thing, that I could never understand. The interview also helped me to understand Prince's ethos for producing and creating music. It is always nice to learn more about the STORY BEHIND THE STORY. I found her insight and love of "soulful" music very refreshing. Music is the universal equalizer, after all, right?!. I also was glad to hear about her work on human hearing. Fascinating.

  • @bourgeoisbrats
    @bourgeoisbrats 7 лет назад +16

  • @keithbell9348
    @keithbell9348 7 лет назад +24

    In an interview, Prince said that someone would release all that music of his hidden down in his vault, though he didn't know who. One of Susan's all time favorite songs, that Prince would not release, was "Moonbeam Levels". How ironic that just a few months after his death, this gift to Susan, is now assessible to all and appears on the just released 4Ever album.

    I can't thank you enough for uploading this. This is a keeper. The insight into how Prince worked and lived is priceless to me. "The street where you live." I only wish the music hadn't been edited out, I presume for copyright reasons. And when she said toward the beginning that she loved all of the songs, except one, why on earth did he not ask her what song was that she didn't like?

    • @stephalfano7212

      I am so grateful for being able to hear this at all, but that was a bummer. At least he was good enough to let her talk. Fascinating stuff. Some of the songs that were edited out were obvious from their conversation, but it would be nice to know what they all were. If possible, this makes us appreciate Prince even more.

    I know I commented on this a lot. But, after watching the young Prince footage discovered in news archives. It compelled me to go back and listen to people who worked with him. Dr. Susan Rogers exemplified the best way to think about being an artist. I could imagine how she conjured up these beliefs after working with such a legendary icon. The part where she talks about ask yourself what success means for you? Important seminar I would recommend for anyone interested in taking their shot at the industry in various facets. It's the most logical way to view it all with common sense.

    As always Susan is highly interesting ! One thing though she mentions at the end Prince never wanted to sync another 24 track, she means when he was recording in the warehouses, when he took the tapes to Sunset Sound to overdub the recordings he would use another 24 track, to put the strings and many other overdubs.

At the end, even he kept those songs in his vault as at that time he thought, they are not good enough or they do not have much to say to the audience .... but that was that time. NOW the audience is hunger for it, WE WANT it, we want to see his process of working, thinking and what he was feeling like - as it will be all there in that vault, in his unreleased songs, music.

    I loved the discussion regarding Prince's unreleased music. I think that all of his music should be released. The vault served a purpose when he was living, but when he passed, he's done....that's it. Except with Prince, it keeps him alive. Whereas, with M. Jackson, there is nothing else in the hopper to look forward to.
    Sure, some of the songs may not appeal to my "home base", but there may be a reworking of one that I have liked (ie: The addition of horns on The Ballard of Dorthy Parker).
