Description

Extremely rare (original issue) independently (self?) released 1979 funk album featuring Prince produced in the Twin Cities. I've heard that this is Prince's first recording. It's also a very nice example of late seventies funk with magnificent spacey sound effects!

It is generally in nice shape. The jacket has some shelf wear on the top and bottom (see photos) but the cover and back look good. The record has some light surface scratches. There are some small, VERY quiet pops in the first 30 seconds of "Get Up" but otherwise the record sounds fantastic!

I found this at a thrift store in the Twin Cities years ago never thinking much of it. It's hard to part with it since I love Prince. But.....Bills.

The tracks are:
Get up
Higher
Feel good to ya
Got to be something Here
Dynamic Duo
