Purple Rain Review for 180 gram vinyl re issue.

I know these 180 gram re issues have already been talked about but I thought I would share this review. It's not only a great review of the re issue but also generally on Purple Rain the album track by track. It's brilliantly simple and on point IMO. Now I really want to get it. I am really craving good sounding vinyl again. Sick of mp3 and CDs. This maybe the best way possible to hear Purple Rain.... Now where are my Bose noise cancelling headphones?

I bought this off of ebay and have not played it. It is a nice package, though.

I'm still baffled that Chronic Freeze, a guy who uses his ears for his profession, claims Prince's back catalogue doesn't need remastering. This is one back catalogue that's in desperate need of a remaster, preferably on Blu-ray in high-def audio.
