Here, in real-time, is that coverage: a look back at Prince in the '90s. Walsh's newly unearthed interviews, essays, columns, and reviews make Gold Experience an essential slice of history.

Rooted in rhythm-and-blues pioneered by black musicians, 1950s rock and roll was racially inclusive and attracted listeners and performers across the color line. In the 1960s, however, rock and roll gave way to rock: a new musical ideal regarded as more serious, more artistic-and the province of white musicians. Decoding the racial discourses that have distorted standard histories of rock music, Jack Hamilton underscores how ideas of "authenticity" have blinded us to rock's inextricably interracial artistic enterprise.

Schwarze Messen, Satanismus, Teufelskult - das Satanische hat im Rock 'n' Roll seit jeher einen festen Platz. Jedenfalls warnen konservative Kräfte bereits seit den 1950er Jahren vor dem teuflischen Einfluss der Rockmusik auf Jugend, Kultur und Gesellschaft. Seit den 1970er Jahren kultivierte der Heavy Metal ganz bewusst sein Image als "Teufelsmusik" und zieht bis heute vielfältige kreative Impulse aus dem Satanischen. Der Teufel selbst begegnet in Musik, Texten und Artworks als schillerndes, vielschichtig besetztes Symbol.

Ehemals Musik junger Abgehängter und Outlaws, ist Heavy Metal heute mehr und mehr in der Mitte der Gesellschaft angekommen: Wohl mehr als 10 Millionen Deutsche hören Heavy Metal. Aber warum tun sie das? Was suchen und was finden sie in dieser Musik, die von Außenstehenden oft als purer Lärm empfunden wird?
