The Ultimate Classic Rock editorial team is proud to introduce UltimatePrince.com, a new website dedicated exclusively to the life and career of one of the most singular artists in popular music history.

We're launching the site today with more than 450 stories already published, each taking in-depth looks at various Prince songs, albums and important events. To make your exploring a little easier we've created two helpful index pages: one alphabetically listing and linking to our stories on nearly 400 of his songs, the other breaking down our features and lists on a chronological album-by-album basis.

There will be a lot of new stories in the coming weeks and months, as we explore all of the newly released tracks on the Originals album, celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Batman soundtrack, the 35th birthday of Purple Rain, the 23rd birthday of the somewhat underappreciated Chaos and Disorder and much more.

Plus, we'll keep you up to date on the latest news about archival Prince releases and reissues, as well as everything new and exciting happening within Prince's musical family -- including the Revolution, the New Power Generation, the Time and many other artists.

You can also check out our extensive Prince galleries, which include the collection of magazine ads at the bottom of this page and a series of year-by-year photos of his Royal Badness, taken between 1977 and 2016.

So be sure to check out our site, follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and join our mailing list. Don't worry, we won't hurt you. We only want you to have some fun.
