Prince’s posthumous album “Welcome 2 America” was written and recorded more than a decade ago and will be released on Friday.
The new record has 12 tracks that are coming out of the vault with unheard music from the Minnesota legend, who died more than five years ago.
Depending on when you shopped at Electric Fetus in Minneapolis over the years, there was a chance you could catch a glimpse of Prince.
“He liked wandering around and nobody bothering him — just flipping through and seeing what’s what,” said Jim Novak, Electric Fetus’ music buyer. “He had very eclectic tastes in music — we didn’t know if he was looking for jazz, classical, rap.”
Now, the record store is preparing to release Prince’s new album.
“Fans are clamoring for it, we have fans from all over the world that have ordered it from us, we’re excited to let everybody hear it,” Novak said.
