Classic album, movie, and tour. Even the B sides were classic.
PURPLE RAIN 40th Anniversary
- Thread starter I love Latina women
- Start date
I remember being 5 or 6 when this came out and people loosing their shyt. It’s a vague memory, but I was in NYC with my mom, her friend’s slightly older kids and gay brother, to try and get in Tower Records “I think it was” to get an album signed. We couldn’t get in because of the crowd. My mom had me on her shoulders and I just barely caught a glimpse of him going in the store.

Sign O The Times is his best album but when you have multiple classic, flawless albums it's not a point worth pressing. Purple Rain is undeniable. Perfect.
It arrived at the perfect moment and gave Prince Rogers Nelson the number one album, single, and movie in America- at the same damn time!
Also, 2 other albums he produced (and wrote the songs on) sold well too. Ice Cream Castles by the Time went platinum. Sheila E’s Glamorous Life also sold well.

Also! Chaka Khan’s version of Prince’s song I Feel For You went number one and won 2 Grammy’s

I was in 4th grade. I remember my brother brought a copy for himself and one for me on my birthday. I spun the shyt out this album. That whole era was def prime Prince all his other bands and proteges were just running the game. There are Prince albums that are better imo but this holds the most nostalgia for me.

The fact Prince lost out to Lionel Richie and U2 for album of the year twice is a disgrace. No one talks about “Can’t Slow Down” or the “The Joshua Tree” as much as they do Purple Rain and Sign O’ The Times. SMH.
A category with Michael, Prince and Whitney lost to U2?
