JDs Revenge

For some reason people seem to think that Prince provided the soundtrack to the 1976 horror/blaxplotation film JDs Revenge. lol I am pretty sure that this is all a mix up. I got the dvd today and it says music by Robert Prince.



look at the review

http://www.moviegoods.com...ie_id=5805

and here is the allmovie review..

This stylish and very entertaining blend of the horror and "Blaxploitation" genres takes some creative risks on a seriously limited budget but manages to deliver the gory goods. The story begins in New Orleans in the mid-1940s, with black crime kingpin J.D. Walker (David McKnight) shot dead on Bourbon Street. Flash forward to the present, when clean-cut college student Ike (Cooley High's Glynn E. Turman) falls under the malevolent influence of the ghostly gangster. As he begins to exhibit J.D.'s boisterous, violent traits, Ike seeks out a local minister (Louis Gossett, Jr., in a standout performance) -- who had once played a role in the gangster's execution -- to exact his revenge. This cult favorite has seen a revival of sorts on home video and primarily remains in the public eye due to the novelty value of its soundtrack: all songs are performed by the artist soon to be known as The Artist Formerly Known As Prince -- who also supplies the vocal for " Will Never Let You Go". -- Cavett Binion


No truth to this right?

I've heard this rumor before,and I don't know how it got started lol

I have this movie on video,and it is from 1976.Prince was barely out of high school and certainly didn't have a record deal yet! I don't know why his name is always attached to this film confuse
