As LIFE observed in 1992, his music &#8220;sprang from that fundamental basement playroom where all rock is gestated. He drew into a single voice the various sounds of James Brown, Jimi Hendrix and Funkadelic, which he pressed into the thunder of Purple Rain. Prince remembered two basic facts about rock: It&#8217;s dance music, and its signature emotion is longing, romantic yearning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>LIFE combed through its archives of hundreds of candid Prince photos to give a closer look at the beloved Purple One. LIFE photographer Gjon Mili once wrote that the best portrait is when the subject is &#8220;free and easy&#8230;in the line of the body.&#8221; By that logic, it was impossible for Prince to take a bad picture.<\/p>\n<p>This gallery was produced in partnership with Spotify as part of their year-long &#8220;Black History Is Happening Now&#8221; platform.
