Released in 1978, For You was Prince’s first LP. He was 19 years old upon its release. The album received a mixed critical response and was seen as a commercial failure. The self-titled Prince (1979) would prove to be much more successful.

The front cover uses Huxley Vertical by Walter Huxley, originally released by ATF in the 1930s. Photo by Joe Giannetti. Art Direction by Jeff Farmakes.
