On Saturday, November 5th 2011, it's a double CD release party: fDeluxe (formerly known as The Family) The Original 7ven (formerly known as The Time)

Double your fun...Double your pleasure...Double your Funk!

HEAD, my reoccurring Prince, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis and related club night is proud 2 present... THE fDELUXE & THE ORIGINAL 7VEN RECORD RELEASE PARTY!

fDELUXE: After a 26 year wait, St. Paul Peterson, Susannah Melvoin, Jellybean Johnson and Eric Leeds have released a brand new CD called "Gaslight" that continues the legacy not only of their former self: The Family, but of the Minneapolis sound & true funk they were instrumental N shaping in the 80s. Prince was the mastermind behind the formation of The Family and wrote all but 1 song on the album, arranging, producing and creating each song. Now, with fDELUXE, St. Paul, Susannah, Jellybean and Eric have taken complete control of the band, renaming themselves, yet retaining all the funk and MPLS sound of The Family we love so much! In the process, they've made a better album themselves than if Prince had been involved.

THE ORIGINAL 7VEN: After a 21 year wait, the band formerly known as The Time with ALL 7 original members: Morris Day, Jerome Benton, Jesse Johnson, Monte Moir, Jellybean Johnson, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis have taken control of their future and destiny, writing, producing and performing their very 1st album without the help of Prince or the name The Time. "Condensate" is the name of the CD and it's funky as only The Original 7ven can make it.

Bringing the live funk to an already funk-ilicious night is the live music of FUNKY SOUL BROTHA who'll B bringing it full stop with 2 live musical sets of Prince covers & other soulful jams around 10:30 and midnight.

This fDELUXE & ORIGINAL 7VEN Record Release Party will spotlight all of the music & visuals of fDELUXE, their former incarnation as The Family with Jerome Benton in the mix as well as the music, visuals and videos of ORIGINAL 7VEN and their former self The Time! Special raffle giveaways will happen that nite of fDELUXE & ORIGINAL 7VEN merch & CDs.

Also, raffled will B copies of the re-release deluxe edition of Andre Cymone's "AC" album, released 4 the first time on CD. Raffle tickets will B available throughout the nite with Rita, the lovely door lady 4 $1 a ticket. The more U buy, the more chance U'll have 2 win!
