Fast Freddie The Roller Disco King (IEX)

'Fast Freddie the Roller Disco King' was a 12-inch single by Little Anthony and the Imperials (as The Imperials), featuring Prince on guitar, synthesizer and keyboards. The basis of the song was recorded by Prince, Pepe Willie, and Andre Cymone at Sound Palace Studios in New York City. Vocal and instrumental overdubs were added later by Little Anthony and the Imperials. The B-side of that single is an early version of the track '10:15', called 'I Just Wanna Be Your Lovin' Man'. It is unclear if Prince appears on that version too as a guitarist, like on 'Fast Freddie the Roller Disco King'. Stripped of it's original overdubs, but with additional overdubs, the song was released as 'One Man Jam' on 94 East's first collection of studio recordings 'Minneapolis Genius'. 'One Man Jam' has featured on every collection of 94 East's early recordings. '10:15' was released in 2002 on the 94 East self-titled album. The 12' was reissued in November 2022 for the Record Store Day, and has now been repressed for 2024 in a generic white sleeve. Tracklisting:A. Fast Freddie The Roller Disco King (6:12)B.
