James Campion

James Campion is the author of a new fascinating and revealing book about Prince - one of the greatest songwriters and musicians of his era who passed away much too soon in 2016 aged 57. His new book 'Revolution - Prince, the band, the era" focuses on his prolific and ground-breaking music from the 80's when he and his band took the music world by storm. James makes a really strong case that Prince should be considered one of our greatest ever pop artists - in the same league as Bowie and The Beatles ; crucially, he emphasizes the huge influence that the other members of the band, The Revolution, had on the music.It's a warts and all portrait of an enigmatic, hugely gifted individual who drove himself and his musical family to the limits and beyond. Prince and the Revolution's is a tale worth savouring, told by a master storyteller.
