The John L. Nelson Project

I'm now listening to "The John L. Nelson Project"--distributed by Bandcamp. Cut-and-paste the link to your browser if U like. (https://johnlnelson.bandcamp.com/album/dont-play-with-love-the-john-l-nelson-project)

Why isn't this project--recorded at Paisley Park Studios--being trumpeted on this site?

Prince's dad's straight-ahead jazz compositions being performed by a group of great musicians? I don't get it, even if there is some dislike of Sharon Nelson, its producer. Jazz fans will get this and enjoy it. The internet age really is bringing out so much more music these days, after composer in his own time was unable to realize the recording and publishing of the work.

A littler earlier this spring I caught the tail-end of a radio interview with the band leader Louis Hayes. He and the band are obviously enthusiastic. C'mon, people--let's get this and explore the jazz mind of Prince's dad, John. A summary of the music project can be found here (https://ropeadope.com/jln).
