Time mag rates 'Purple Rain' among best soundtracks of all time.

http://www.time.com/time/...48,00.html

What I found most interesting is it is one of a few of the top 25 that is basically a solo effort.



as was pointed out it is not a solo PRINCE album, but unlike most of the other soundtracks, it is one of a few that was done by one gropu as opposed to several diffrent acts.

Nice news. Absolutely belongs there too.

I would take out a few in there though and put in Blood Diamonds instead.

I look at it as the second "Prince and The Revolution" album. The first one (I feel) is 1999. It's an "Prince and The Revolution" album. The credit was given to them for nothing. They helped made that album as well as Prince did. He may have had more control of it but, it's an "Prince and The Revolution" album.

Contradicting yourself in your efforts to praise Prince unconditionally. At least you're consistent.
