 Paisley Park - Definition 

Paisley Park Records was Prince's record label, associated with and funded by Warner Bros. Records. It was started in 1986, following the success of the film and album Purple Rain.

Artists who recorded for Paisley Park include Sheila E., Mavis Staples, Rosie Gaines, George Clinton, Carmen Electra, Jill Jones, and Ingrid Chavez.

While Prince had great chart success in the 1980s, it did not transfer to other acts; the label never had any commercial successes except for Prince's releases. In 1994, amid Prince's feud with Warner Bros., Warner ended its distribution deal with Paisley Park, effectively closing the label. Prince later started NPG Records.

The record label shares its name with his recording complex and a song on his 1986 Around the World in a Day album.
