Dumb question but...

I noticed on this website http://www.discogs.com/ar...arr?page=1 that Prince (AKA Jamie Starr) was given writing credits for a song titled "Sexy Ladies" that was performed in 1983 by The Love Bone Band. This is news to me. This is not correct info, right? Or is this one of those Prince contributions that slipped under my radar?

Here's the link for the song just in case you're curious:

It's someone else using the pseudonym Jamie Starr. Not Prince

I even think it is a good question. Because if you don't know...where would you go?

Let me think.
