MY 'PURPLE RAIN' COLLECTION

..I remember when i bought my 1st purple rain album...it was beautiful..it was the 12in w/the actual purple LP..i heart..it so much!..so much,that when i went 2 mexico in the summer i took it with me+my teddy..when we were in mexico city,we went 2 visit my dad's oldest brother..my uncle memo had 3 sons+1 daughter..they r my favorite blood relatives on that side and i heart..them so much!..so much,that at 7yrs old i ended giving them my Purple Rain..i wanted them 2 also experience the joy..it has now been 25yrs since...

..yesterday i had a crazy urge..i didn't understand it..basically,it was an urge 2 get in my car and drive...so i did!..i jumped on the freeway and drove about 5miles..as i passed the exits,1 in particular called my attention..as i got off and started 2 drive maybe 2 miles..i found out what the urge was...a used/new book,record,magazine shop..i had never seen it before..

..i went inside and walked over 2 the LP section...right in front of my face was no other but the 'purple rain' album on top of a stack!!..JACKPOT! woot!..I FOUND IT!!..it was in mint condition,including the 'doves cry' poster and LP sleeve..i also found these other items:

-12in LP..Around the world in a day album..
-prince CD..Rave un2 the joy fantastic..
-prince cassette..original package..Love symbol..
-7in singles of:..batdance/200balloons..1999/little red corvette..when doves cry/let's go crazy..BABY/why u wanna treat me so bad?..time+jamie starr:the bird/my drawers..jungle love/oh baby..sheena eston produced by prince,i don't know what r the songs it doesn't say..chaka khan:i feel 4 u/chinatown..sheila e:love bizarre/love bizarre part 2..tommy james+the shondells:crimson+clover..AND..12in'ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT':miles davis quintet...

..i felt i got away with murder...everything is in mint condition!..everything contains ORIGINAL packaging and i only spent $30!!..even though i did spend almost 2hrs digging through everything...thank you God and ur Army..4 helping me find my treasures!..love is just around the corner touched..

This one alone is valued at $30.00 in most price guides:




Nice pickup!

BTW, I think you mean 7 inch single, not 6 wink
