Next month will mark six years since the world lost one of the greatest musicians of his time. Prince was found dead at his Paisley Park home in Minneapolis, in April 2016; he was 57 years old.
During his life he was not only one of the most prolific singer songwriters and musicians but also collaborated with many stars.
One such star was Fleetwood Mac’s very own Stevie Nicks who recently opened up about their relationship saying the iconic star once warned her about her drug use.
The two worked together in the early 80s and their musical collaboration turned into a “a really amazing relationship.” At one point the now 73-year-old said she was flattered to find he was “putting the moves on her.”
“Prince and I were just friends,” Nicks told Harper’s Bazaar. “I think he would have been happy to have had a relationship.”
While Nicks was on her way to her honeymoon with now ex-husband Kim Anderson, she heard Prince‘s “Little Red Corvette” and immediately started created her own version.
