Purple Rain vinyl '08 remaster?

spotted the 180gram PR remaster listed on amazon for Oct.21 release, descript says remastered: http://www.amazon.com/Pur...268&sr=8-1

sorry if posted before, but remastered with or without P's input and by whom? any other albums to follow?

I'm loving all the vinyl that's coming out!

At some point in your life you've just gotta say no, after 25 yrs. of Purple rain, I seriously don't care.

The original vinyl sounds great though.

You better care! Purple Rain is the most important song in 50 years!

thanks Nouveau. No a regular reader and I searched purple rain+vinyl+remaster and several combos without success (hell, nothing even comes up with just "purple rain" but search engines and I never have gotten along.

For those of us getting back into vinyl after a near 20 yr 'CD distraction', and a new generation discovering vinyl now, it's great they are releasing classic albums again. My original copy of purple rain doesn't look so good after my teen years and probably hundreds of spins with a cheap stylus followed by poor storage and probably 15 moves since then. A fresh remastered copy with the occasional listen should last the rest of my days. smile Too bad 1999 isn't on the list.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
