During that time, Jim Walsh covered Prince for the \u003cem\u003eSt. Paul Pioneer Press\u003c\/em\u003e and wrote about him passionately, thoughtfully, exhaustively. Here, in real time, is that coverage: a clip-by-clip look back at Prince in the '90s. Walsh's newly unearthed interviews, essays, columns, and reviews make \u003cem\u003eGold Experience\u003c\/em\u003e an essential slice of history for fans, scholars, and latecomers to the Minneapolis-born musical genius Prince Rogers Nelson (June 7, 1958 - April 21, 2016).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJoin Walsh at the 1994 NBA All-Star game after party and release bash for the single \"The Most Beautiful Girl in the World.\" Accompany him to the after-hours clubs Erotic City, Glam Slam, and, of course, Paisley Park.
