Prince – Detroit, November 4th 1984
Photography by Govert de Roos
Signed Hardcover – Available exclusively at Bennies Fifties
Some concerts become legendary.
Some photographs become history.
Prince – Detroit, November 4th 1984 is both.
Created to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Purple Rain and the legendary Purple Rain Tour, this extraordinary hardcover book presents one of the most exclusive photographic collections ever published about Prince.
This is far more than a concert book.
It is a unique visual document of one of the greatest live performances in rock history.
The only photographer with complete access
What makes this book truly exceptional is the story behind the photographs.
Through Apollonia, photographer Govert de Roos was introduced to Prince. During their first meeting, Prince complimented Govert on his photography of Apollonia, Vanity and Sheila E.
As a result, Prince granted him something almost no photographer has ever received:
An All Access Pass.
This made Govert the only photographer allowed to photograph the entire opening night of the Purple Rain Tour on November 4th, 1984, in Detroit.
From the first song to the final encore.
Standing only feet away from Prince.
Exclusive photographs never seen before
Thanks to this unique access, Govert captured moments no one else could.
Powerful guitar solos.
Intimate close-ups.
Raw emotion.
The explosive stage performance.
And Prince at the height of his creative genius.
Many of these remarkable photographs have never been published before, making this book an essential collector's edition for Prince fans around the world.
Featuring text by Mick Boskamp
The stunning photography is accompanied by exclusive text from renowned Dutch music journalist Mick Boskamp.
His stories provide fascinating background and transport readers back to the unforgettable Purple Rain era.
Together, the photographs and text create a heartfelt tribute to one of music's greatest icons.
