Purple Rain Deluxe track list:

Disc three looks great. Two concert DVDs included too. I think one is from 1983/4.

There is a show with Bobby Friction on 6 Music on Sunday, I will upload it for all the Prince fans.

Heard it earlier but I just nicked it and it's really nice.

No better way to pay tribute to him on the first anniversary of his death than by stealing his music

I listened to it 3 times yesterday and twice today
and the title track is the standout - BUT that doesn't
mean that the rest is bad. It's just that I can hear how
it might not have passed the test for Prince, The Perfectionist.
A mix that is more maximalist and the occasional highs that don't
quite make it, sounds a bit like his usual remaking of 60's psych with
70's soul, but a little bit strained. Kinda like Sly Stone doing Queen on
Sunrise Sunset. I'm still living with it. Right now: 7.5/10. It'll probably go up.
