2 out of 5 stars Missing Best Song!   August 19, 2010
Jill L Hatfield
I was so excited to find Purple Rain on DVD and CD through Amazon. I was listening to the CD and waited patiently for the last song PURPLE RAIN to play and it stopped just before it started. This is two times I have received a CD from Amazon that the CD seemed to be missing songs.

This album was a gift for my husband. We both love Prince, but agree that all of his best work was done in the 1980s. All of these songs are awesome and we love the album.


5 out of 5 stars Discontinued! That's outrageous!   February 17, 2010
Sylviastel
I never thought this classic album, Purple Rain, would be discontinued by the Manufacturer. Purple Rain is more than just a film that starred Prince. It's probably his finest work to date with songs like "When Doves Cry," "Purple Rain," "I would die for you," "Let's Go Crazy," and others on this compact disc or album or audio cassette are unforgettable, unique, and part of the 1980s MTV generation. Prince and the Revolution were themselves a revolution with the unforgettable almost x-rated film. Purple Rain, the movie and the music, remain classic because they still live up today. Much like Michael Jackson's Thriller, Prince has Purple Rain as one of his best-selling works. Still regardless of technical reasons or manufacturing problems, Purple Rain should never never ever be out of stock or out of production. It's timeless, revolutionary, and part of the MTV generation.


5 out of 5 stars The beautiful ones always smash the picture...   February 11, 2010
Scott A. Cabler (Dallas, Tx)
If you haven't figured it out: this is a classic album. I'm STILL listening to the album 24 years later. I just wish he would remaster the album but one thing I've noticed is that Prince doesn't look back. That's why he's never remastered any of his music. If you've heard all the songs, I recommend that you track down the extended versions of some of the songs. The dance version of Let's Go Crazy is on Ultimate Prince but the others are harder to come by. There is also an extended versions of The Beautiful Ones, Computer Blue and Darling Nikki. All worth hearing. You will see the master at his finest and know why this album is awesome.


5 out of 5 stars The Prince Becomes A King   February 3, 2010

Purple Rain is one of the gold standard albums in music history. Music's most talented, most versatile & gifted musician takes us on a joy ride for the ages with 9 perfectly crafted songs. Prince not only made a classic soundtrack but also made a cult classic film. Prince became a king in the music business with this classic gem.

P.S. for the 15 lames who rated this album 3 stars or less needs their heads examined. Step ya game up!
