In 1885 Starpoint released this track called 'What you been missin' from their album 'Restless' and it sound very Prince to me...

Do you happen to know if he had anything to do with it?

It sure sounds like a Purple Rain outtake.

Were they [roduced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis?

Don't think so. The majority of their stuff was produced by Lionel Job. They recorded a couple of pretty good electro-funk tracks, like 'Wanting You' or 'He Wants My Body' (the latter is more of a dance track)

To answer your question,no. Prince never worked with starpoint. As stated
earlier starpoint during their heyday primarily worked with Lionel Job who
later worked with the forgettable Joe Public(live and learn fame)and Keith
Sweat(keep it comin). There were like 4 phillips brothers in the group and
the one who sang lead whenever renee diggs didn't primarily produced other
tracks for them. Another one of the more underrated groups. I have 4 of
their albums. Love object of desire, restless,what you been missin, he
wants my body, prove it tonight, tough act to follow,etc.
One of the best concerts i seen back in the 80's was
barkays,confunkshun,starpoint,atlantic starr,and doug e.fresh w/
slick rick.

Starpoint were huge Prince fans.I saw them on "Video Soul" with Donnie Simpson and they mentioned that Prince was one of their influences.Their sexy 1983 hit "Delicious" sounds alot like a Prince production,imo.
