John L - "Father's Song" CD and pictures

Here are pictures of the CD "Father's Song" by Prince's father, John L. For some reason, people think "Gemini" isn't Prince. I'm pretty sure it is, though.

Were these tracks on the Platinum boot back in the mid 90s? I recognise the titles and doesn't Yes Again have a Prince like falsetto singing "Yes Again" over and over?
Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

I don't know, and I don't know. I don't have the CD with me (I'm on a month-long trip).

But I'm about 100% positive the guitars are Prince, especially on the last song.

So who´s the guy named "Gemini" then? We had a thread about him here on the org two or three weeks ago. You think he was just a proxy for Prince?

I think Prince was Gemini. Who else could it have been?

I think you misinterpreted what I posted. There was a picture of that guitar player named Gemini together with John L. Nelson here on the org not too long ago. Hence my question whether you think that maybe that person was just standing in for Prince, sort of a proxy.

Yeah, but I hadn't seen the pics that were later posted on it. So now I can believe Prince wasn't Gemini. EXCEPT - Prince used the "Gemini" name on the Batman album.

I see what you mean by proxy for Prince. Maybe so!

What a great mystery!
