Prince - Purple Rain
1984 Warner Bros. Records 25110-1 Vinyl LP w/artistic inner sleeve & poster
I judge both the record and cover VG+. This is from my personal collection. I played it for the last time today and it played perfectly with no clicks, pops, skips or repeats. Barely any surface noise. Few visible marks on the record itself.
The album will ship to current best practices as I understand them. The album will be sandwiched between the cover and the inner paper sleeve, then placed in a plastic sleeve, with cardboard padding on both sides and in a dedicated album shipping box.
I ship USPS Media Mail insured though it costs more than the $4.00 eBay allows me to charge.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Purple Rain is the sixth studio album by American recording artist Prince, the first to feature his backing band The Revolution, and is the soundtrack album to the 1984 film of the same name. It was released on June 25, 1984 by Warner Bros. Records.
Purple Rain is regularly ranked among the best albums in music history and is widely regarded as Prince's magnum opus. Time magazine ranked it the 15th greatest album of all time in 1993, and it placed 18th on VH1's Greatest Rock and Roll Albums of All Time countdown. Rolling Stone magazine ranked it the second-best album of the 1980s and 76th on their list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Zoundsmagazine ranked it the 18th greatest album of all time. Furthermore, the album placed 4th in Plásticos y Decibelios' list of The Greatest Albums of All Time. In 2007, the editors of Vanity Fair labeled it the best soundtrack of all time and Tempo magazine named it the greatest album of the 1980s. In 2012, Slant Magazine listed the album at #2 on its list of "Best Albums of the 1980s" behind only Michael Jackson's Thriller. That same year, the album was added to the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry list of sound recordings that "are culturally, historically, or aesthetically important".
The two main songs from Purple Rain, "When Doves Cry" and "Let's Go Crazy", topped the US singles charts and were hits around the world, while the title track went to number two on the Billboard Hot 100.
The 1000th issue of Entertainment Weekly dated July 4, 2008 listed Purple Rain at number one on their list of the top 100 best albums of the past 25 years. In 2013, the magazine also listed the album at number two on their list of the 100 Greatest Albums ever.[5] The RIAAlists it as having gone platinum 13 times over.
