R there any recordings of Prince's Dad's music?

Not the ones he collaborated with P on but his own recordings.

I would love to here his take on jazz. Any similarities to P.
Any recordings of his mom singing.

The "Platinum" bootleg contains the Father´s Song EP by John L. Nelson.
We had a little discussion about his dad´s music here, a few months ago.

I like that EP, but I seem to be the only one.
Released on some small Mpls record label it contained the songs
Yes Again
There´d Be No Way For You And I
As I Recall
Fallin Down

No Prince involvement as far as I know, but the vocals ( the "Yes..."part ) in song one sound a bit like Prince.

Even though it´s titled Father´s Song it does NOT contain that song in any form.

Hope this helps.
