Built & distributed in 1981, an iconic group of individuals merged together to form the Minneapolis creation The Time. Seven times talented - seven times fashionable - seven times musical influences - Monte, Jesse, Morris, Jerome, Terry, Jimmy & Jellybean are the nucleus one of the most influential bands in modern music history Minneapolis native & fellow music legend Prince helped to formulate this group of ambitious & academically accomplished young men into a well tuned machine that at times intimidated even Prince because of their precision, stage presence & domination of their craft. The Time is a force to be reckoned with. 2011 is the 30 year Celebration of The Time and the group has a faithful following of fans from around the world. These fans are not only lovers of The Time’s music. The fans have followed the successful individual careers of each member of the group. Now with their 2011 release “Condensate” the group starts a new chapter under the title “The Original 7ven” (The Band Formerly Known As The Time). The album dropping October 18, 2011 is a highly anticipated release by the group coined “The Magnificent 7.”
