I only pick up the mag sporadically, so I can't really speak on it in the context of other recent issues, but I was pretty disappointed with the issue -- especially the Prince "cover" story. Sure it had a few interesting tidbits about the man; mostly it was just a lot of navel gazing by this former road manager with near nil insight into the process or even, really, any mention of his actual music. I forget the actual phrasing but in the publisher's note, he was oddly like, "This isn't even close to the definitive Prince article," and it's true.

As far as the actual book goes, seems the paper stock actually declined since the last issue I got, which admittedly was a while ago. No gloss whatsoever. I don't think I can justify the purchase at the $12 pricepoint.
