Prince's side project, Madhouse, is still a very coveted album by collectors. Long out of print, this was the first of two Madhouse albums, which Madhouse saxophonist Eric Leeds has recently remarked was "all Prince." So get a heavy dose of Prince's virtuosity on this record, with him playing most of the instruments, and offering the most jazz-centric music of his career up to this point. The album cover is only rated (G) good, due to a couple of scuffs/stains, however, is still in it's original shrink wrap. It's a cut-out copy (see pics), meaning that it was relegated to the discount bin in the subsequent years following it's release. The vinyl though, is near mint (NM), with no visible scratches, and no noticeable pops during playback. This is an excellent opportunity to grab one of Prince's best side projects. Comes from a clean, smoke-free home. Check out my other Prince-related auctions also. Thanks for looking, cheers :)
