Symbolic Beginning
(album) 		94 East
(album)
Minneapolis Genius is the first collection of studio recordings by 94 East, the band name given to a number of tracks recorded by Pepé Willie and Prince with occasional other musicians (it is misleading to consider it an "album", as the tracks have been rearranged many times for reissues under different titles).

The collection contained one song with writing input by Prince, Just Another Sucker, and Prince appeared as a musician on all tracks, stemming from recording sessions between 1975 and 1979 (the cover subtitle incorrectly labels the sessions as "the historic 1977 recordings").

Prince had no input into the final release, however, and was upset at its release, leading to a heated discussion between Prince and Pepé Willie in First Avenue in Minneapolis upon its release.

This collection has been re-released several times under different titles, often with additional tracks. The other releases containing these tracks are:

A second collection, featuring different tracks (including two additional tracks featuring Prince, titled 94 East, was released in 2002.

The album was released without much promotion, and did not chart.
