Prince – Purple Rain: Remastered (2-CD)
Product Details
Purple Rain arrived in 1984 alongside the film of the same name and turned Prince into a planetary force, spending 24 weeks at number one on the Billboard 200. The Revolution were at the absolute peak of their powers here, and the vault material on disc two, drawn from the same era sessions at Paisley Park, offers a rare window into how Prince worked: prolific, exacting, and always a few steps ahead of everyone else.
Purple Rain remains one of history’s most important, indisputable, and influential albums, but you’ve never heard it like this before. Purple Rain Deluxe boasts the official 2015 Paisley Park Remaster of the original tapes overseen by Prince himself in addition to a new “From The Vault & Previously Unreleased” disc with 11 unheard gems from the storied vault. This is Prince’s final word on his definitive masterpiece.
If you’ve never experienced Purple Rain, the 2-CD Deluxe Edition is the best place to start. It features both the 2015 Paisley Park Remaster as well as “From The Vault & Previously Unreleased.” It’s the perfect gateway into the world of Prince and Purple Rain.
