Prince – “Mary Don’t You Weep”
“This raw, intimate recording, which took place at the start of Prince’s career right before he achieved international stardom, is similar in format to the Piano & A Microphone Tour that he ended his career with in 2016. The Estate is excited to be able to give fans a glimpse of his evolution. Also, to show how his career ultimately came full circle with just him and his piano.” – Troy Carter, entertainment adviser for the estate
The reason behind the big announcement is to celebrate the late singer’s 60th birthday, which is today, June 7, 1958. Happy birthday, brother, rest in power.
