KUVO joins the world in mourning the passing of singer/songwriter, Prince. The music icon died Thursday at his Paisley Park estate in suburban  Minneapolis. He was 57.

Born Prince Rogers Nelson, Prince was a multi-instrumental virtuoso who sold more than 100 million records during his celebrated career. He reportedly played 27 instruments on one of his recordings. He is remembered for such iconic songs as “Purple Rain,”  “Little Red Corvette” and “1999.”

A memorial is rapidly growing at Paisley Park in celebration of the life of this citizen of the world.
