Patrice Rushen . The first of three albums she would record withPrestige Records , the album was mainly Instrumental jazz which was her main focus as a singer before becoming a full-time R&B singer four years later after signing withElektra Records . Released in 1974, the album showed great promise for Rushen in the Instrumental jazz genre with songs like "Haw-Right Now", "Shortie's Portion", and "Puttered Bopcorn".The album only leaves people to speculate on where her career in jazz might have gone had she not switched to R&B singing in 1978. In 1998, "Prelusion" was reissued along with Rushen's second album, "Before the Dawn", on a single 77-minute CD; unfortunately, "Puttered Bopcorn" was deleted due to space limitations.
