Paisley Park Tour - Office
Prince’s office is located adjacent to the atrium. Portions of his personal office have been roped off, but otherwise it has been kept as he used the space. A glass meeting table and chairs at one end. His desk on the opposite end with a purple landline phone, his bible, a magnifying glass, family photos, cat carrier, luggage and a briefcase sit close by. A tall, old school CD holder contains some of his favorite music by artists like Joni Mitchell and Sly and the Family Stone, and some of his own albums can also be seen. Prince was an Egyptian history buff – a coffee table book about Egypt and a large art piece with Egyptian symbols hangs on one wall. I was not able to locate photos of his office online to include from the tour.
Video Editing Bay
As part of the VIP Tour, we were able to go inside Prince’s video editing bay in the next room off the atrium. A curved electronic console desk with a computer, a few monitors and a video screen mounted on the wall is where Prince would view and edit videos.
Although there is a large purple comfy looking couch and glass coffee table, we were invited to sit on the gold carpeted floor/step to watch a video clip. We were told Prince recorded everything, and most of it was likely in the vault. He would review the footage of rehearsals, sound checks and performances, critiquing how he and his band could improve or what could be scrapped for future performances.
Minda also told of the recent discovery of a secret room behind this room filled with unreleased video footage and music. Prince did not digitize everything; however, there are stacked shelves and piles of unreleased albums, live performances, video, etc., sitting in the vaults below Paisley Park, which remain off-limits, for legal reasons.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
