Dive into the Minneapolis music scene of the seventies that shaped Prince's musicianship and his perfectionist approach, drawing parallels to Walt Disney himself. Discover Prince's appearances on Muppets Tonight and his work with Warner Brothers, which sets the stage for unexpected ties to Disney. Eric delves into the history of Sunset Sound, a studio with both Disney and Prince history, exploring Bob Cavallo's transition from Prince's manager to a key figure in Disney's music division. Uncover how Powerline, from A Goofy Movie, is deeply connected to Prince through shared musicians and studios, and learn about Prince's favorite film, Finding Nemo.
