Free Music Notes for Music from the Motion Picture "Purple Rain"
Free Music Review: One of my favorite albums of all times...
Hit: 5 Stars
I know these reviews are for the items not Amazon service, but I just wanted to include how satisfied I am with the MP3 downloads and services. That said, Purple Rain is, in my opinion, Prince's greatest album. It isn't often that a fan can love ALL the songs on one album..a mix of songs from many albums, yes..but not every song. I grew up in the 80's and Purple Rain just reminds me of all that I loved from that time. The movie, Purple Rain, was okay, but I think the songs were the best part. Prince is a great artist and songwriter..I love how he mixes funk, dance and rock.
Music from the Motion Picture "Purple Rain" Poster
Maybe this music by Prince & the Revolution will never quite sound as, well, revolutionary as it did in 1984 (and nothing else has ever sounded like the extraordinary cooing and fluttering of "When Doves Cry"), but it's a pop landmark in Prince's Artist-ic career. The hit movie was really just a big-screen showcase for Prince to perform these songs (some of them in tear-the-roof-off "live" versions set in a Minneapolis club). I don't know why that warped sermonette introduces "Let's Go Crazy" (one thing you've got to love about Prince: he's always been weird), but somehow I'm glad it's there. Other highlights include the sexual scorcher "Darling Nikki" (with its crazy backwards coda) and that anthemic title tune. Don't you miss Wendy and Lisa, too? --Jim EmersonAlternative Rock Music CDs
