Yeh Prince ended up burning all his bridges.
Sasha wasn’t chuffed about the pic of God cover because it was supposed to be for a joke and then dom used it. Well known fable.

I mean, he’s not totally wrong. Dance music took a backseat for quite a few years there and likely never got back to where it was in the ’90’s. Maybe it’s the American in me, but I believe dance music belongs in the underground anyway. It’s better when it’s raw and unpredictable and, frankly, disposable.

Smallman1 Yeah it was actually Dom Phillips I was thinking of. Found the interview of him on the infamous mixmag cover:

https://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2018/03/dom-phillips-interview

Was that the one with the halo?

Yeah, the reason was he’d been a nightmare all day and wouldn’t do anything. I had to go down [to the shoot]. At the end of the day, the photographer, exasperated, just said “Go like that” [clasps hands, as if in prayer]. The pictures came in and Pembo [Andy Pemberton, then editor of Mixmag] said, “Son of God.” So, we did. It was more a case of necessity than anything we set out to do.

Oh, he always said he wasn’t happy about it. I think the reason he wasn’t comfortable about it was that all his mates used to phone him up and take the piss out of him. He’s quite a lad. When we did the “Son of God?” cover, he really hated that. We actually had a wrestling match about it outside the Ministry of Sound.
A wrestling match?

Yeah, me and Sasha wrestled. We had this protracted argument for about an hour that people were trying to break up. It didn’t become a fight, but it became this magical wrestling match: “You shouldn’t have said that.” “You should have co-operated with the photos.” [laughs]

jonattonyeah

What?

Cankles-McJeggings

Haha gold. Didn’t stop him writing all the gu covers though did it ?

jonattonyeah some call it trance, he calls it wrestling 🤼‍♀️

I can understand why Sasha (then a young lad) would of been pissed off about that cover, but in retrospect now it’s iconic.

Not a good look if you have a religious family - not at that time anyway.

jonattonyeah

Maybe the Brazilians don’t take to kindly to enchanted touching.
