What Time Is It?

Warner Bros. Records

Albeit credited to Morris Day and The Time, all the tracks on White Time Is It?, the second album for The Time, were in fact written, and the instruments perofrmed, by Prince – credited as The Starr ★ Company, except for Wild And Loose² whose lyrics were co-wrote by Dez Dickerson and Morris Day. Despite not wanting The Time to perform on the album itself the band joined Prince as his support act on both the Controversy Tour and Triple Treat Tour.

The phone number 777-9311 actually belonged to Prince’s bandmate Dez Dickerson.
