THE CLASSIC 1985 BROADCAST FROM THE PURPLE RAIN TOUR

The most commercially successful period in Prince’s musical career, by the mid-1980s this maverick performer, musician and composer was at the peak of his global popularity. The recording presented on this new two-instalment vinyl set comes from a spectacular show performed while Prince & The Revolution were on their Purple Rain tour. The concert took place at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, upstate New York, on 30th March 1985, and superbly captures the magnificence of the tour, Prince’s most successful ever - which resulted in sales of over 1.7 million tickets across 98 shows in total. Taken from a perfectly balanced and mixed FM Broadcast of the event, this archive release, available now in completion, will prove both a delight and a must-have package for every Prince fan around.
