Cheers Latin, but this one should be in the associated artists forum.

WOW. This is exciting news.

I hope Prince got to see this music...this should be interesting...Thanks Latin

Check out Prince's sisters introduce The John L. Nelson Project. "Introducing The John L. Nelson Project! John L. Nelson was a prolific Jazz musician most notably known as the father of the musical genius Prince Rogers Nelson. John L. Nelson wrote and composed many songs which were never recorded until now. John L. Nelson was the catalyst to Prince's musical inspiration, and this project is the first recording produced in Paisley Park since Prince's passing. This promo is a segment from the short form documentary about the new album that will be released very soon." Here it is: https://m.youtube.com/wat...Wr1ow04-ZA [Edited 6/12/17 7:33am]

Wow, this is Sharon trying to get some bucks. You know she said she had never been in Paisley Park before on The Today show. Perhaps if she gets some fame as a producer she will pipe the fuck down.

SNJ cashing in.

VERY COOL! This is awesome!

This should be very interesting!

first new music recorded at paisley park? i thought that was tyka's song? i call shade

anyway, this is a nice project, i'll be looking out for it

it also hints at the possible fact that these sibs are not negative toward releasing songs
or whole albums. so let's wait and see what they do once they get the go ahead to start
pulling stuff from the vault.

I do not think any of the sibs are aganist putting out music. The only people holding up music is Lonny and company.

I am VERY excited to buy this album! Thank you, Latin, for the heads up! I WILL get this for sure! Truly excited about this news...

I love real jazz. If the music is good I might buy it. I'm sick of the constant cashing in complaints. No one is forced to fork over money to anyone. You don't have to tour PP, don't have to purchase merchandise or associate albums or concert tickets. It's all voluntary. I bought Shelby J. Adrian Crutchfield's albums because the music sounded good to me. I was happy to give them some business as I know they're independent without the help of major record labels and probably are self-financing a lot of what they're doing. If that means I'm helping them "cash in" oh well. I don't care.

You do not have to care but remember these 3 are working with Lonnie who has done a lot of damage to the estate. What sort of sibs would want to work with someone so under handed and greedy. Who may be costing the estate millions of dollars and directly going against Prince's wishes which is important since nothing Londell has done so far as made him anymore sucessful than Prince was with running his business.

Cool. I for one and MUCH more interested in John L.'s music than Tyka's.

I"m with you. And this SOUNDS like a really interesting project and I like what you can hear of it in the promo video.

It LOOKS like crap, however…that album cover is horrid.

I think it's great that John Nelson may finally have his music aspirations realized. Hopefully the album does very well and they put out more.

This has Londell grimey hands all over it.

Whose grimey hands are over this project I don't care, I am just excited about this release. The bits in the promo video sound great and I am eager to lay my own grimey hands on this album!

God I think you need to get some help for your Londell obsession.

You need to understand that he is the reason we may not be hearing a vast amount of the vault material for a good while. Enjoy John's stuff but I want to hear Prince's music. The fact that they are working with this fuck up and maybe he is taking advantage of them is a appalling.

I don't care about that either, this is usually the case with most of the music that I like...

http://www.mncourts.gov/mncourtsgov/media/CIOMediaLibrary/Documents/10PR1646_Memo2_6-9-17.pdf UMG is making it plain that if this agreement is not ended this month they will sue and at this moment they are doing nothing with the music at all. These two asshats are actually writing letters defending Londell while UMG is calling him out for fraud.

IMHO there's nowhere near enough money to be made from an album of jazz music written by a deceased pop star's father and performed by unknown studio musicians for Londell to be overly involved.

I love this idea and will buy it, but it has far less appeal to the general public than even an album of unfinished Prince music.

Wrong he is managing Sharon and her corporation SNJ. Trust me he is involved.

It will be interesting to hear what kind of music Prince grew up with, his musical genealogy. There are those who like to think that he came from nothing.

Sounds beautiful. Wish Prince was here to see this come to fruition.
