This Special Edition features the 2015 Paisley Park remastered audio pressed on 180g purple vinyl, available November 12 only through the official Prince Store and Minnesota-based retailer Target.
Released in the summer of 1984, Purple Rain is Prince’s most iconic album. It was the most commercially and culturally impactful release of his career, and coupled with the film of the same name, it influenced the fashion and sound of the rest of the 1980s.
By the end of 1985, Purple Rain had received two Grammys, three American Music Awards, two Brit Awards, and an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score, and the album remained at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for 24 weeks and in the top 10 for 32 weeks, selling over 25 million copies worldwide. It has since been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and has been added to the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress.

Dwight D GreshamApril 20, 2023This was my first Prince album. I was hooked on the music from age 13. After that i started collecting everything. I bought the purple version for two reasons. One it was to celebrate it being what got me hooked on Prince. The second reason was i bought it for my own birthday present.

Atsushi SakaiJune 15, 2022I have 6 CDs of "Purple Rain". But this is the most beautiful and gorgeous of them.

Eric LeongMay 19, 2022Vinyl is great! Shipping box could be better. I ordered 3 copies, they came in a large box that offered no protection for the vinyls when a corner of the box is dented - all 3 copies are also dented in the same corner.

SherriApril 21, 2022I bought five of the albums to use as a giveaway at our AMER Sales Meeting. They were a huge hit for all, and the purple vinyl was a huge surprise for them!
-
DeannaMarch 25, 2022I bought it just to frame it and it is beautiful! The purple is perfect with the subtle design in the vinyl and the floral pattern on the cover is just gorgeous. I have decided that this album, even though so reasonably priced, deserves to be professionally framed so soon that's going to happen. I love it that much!

DaveMarch 14, 2022First off, the packaging and purple vinyl are stunning. I couldn't stop watching it spin on the turntable. But, most importantly, the sound quality is superb. It's recaptured all of its glory from the original as I remember it. A really great pressing and addition to my re-growing collection.
