This is probably from the Dirty Mind tour, based on his hair & look. But the jacket is really reminiscent of MJ's Thriller jacket from a few years later.

I believe it is the late 1979 Prince era going into the Dirty Mind period

Wow, I have a gorgeous black leather jacket from back in the day that looks pretty damn close to that one. Love it!

I had a mustard yellow one that I wore all through high school. My zippers matched the color of the jacket though.

Are you near P's age? I am getting that impression since you said this but don't recall if you've ever said.

I hate to admit this, but I had a suede jacket that was styled like that, but it had fringe on the arms! Holy cowgirl Batman, she may take flight!

Nice pic! I've never seen that one. Funny thing is those leather Moto jackets are on-trend.

The one Michael was wearing were very popular in the 80s.

Those type of jackets were really popular back in the day. Lots of zippers...
