After leaving the Revolution, Dez formed his own short-lived band, the Modernaires and toured in support of Billy Idol on his 1984 '' Rebel Yell '' tour. Dez appeared in the movie '' Purple Rain '' with the Modernaires, but their song was not released as a single or on the ''Purple Rain'' Soundtrack . A solo recording deal failed to materialize, however, and in 1987 Dickerson relocated to Nashville to back singer Judson Spence. He also kept busy with session work and producing other artists. In 1990 Dickerson was named Vice President of A&R with the CCM label Starsong Communications. Four years later he founded his own label, Absolute Records, a Christian-rock Record Company . He released a solo album in the late 1990s entitled ''Oneman''. He recently released a Book , ''My Time with Prince-Confessions of a Former Revolutionary'', which tells of his time with Prince and the Revolution from his first audition in 1978 until his departure in 1983.
