Description:

In 1976, Owen Husney became Prince's first manager after hearing the demo tape he had recorded at Chris Moon's studio. Husney had experience in pop music that went back 15 years, starting when he was in a pop group himself. He financed the recording of a new demo tape, which led to Prince's deal with Warner Bros., said to be the biggest recording contract up to that time for a solo artist with the exception of Johnny Winter.
