Lefsetz Letter on "Purple Rain" Recording

If you subscribe to Bob Lefsetz's blog, he's got a new one up about Prince.

Why didn't you just post the letter? I hate when people don't even give a link or the actual article. This is what we call a horrible way to post information, DucciChucka.

I went to the site and I saw no article on Purple Rain. Ducci deserves to be punched.

Yo,

Both of y'all back the eff up off of me. I didn't know if I would be allowed to post

the info because it contains a link to a Youtube clip; and besides, I thought those of

you with half a brain would be able to use that thing they call GOOGLE in order to find

the post.

Per your whining:

Click quick, this should be down soon:

http://bit.ly/y64YqZ

This is the original version of "Purple Rain". Cut live at First Avenue.

If I knew that, I'd forgotten it. That "Purple Rain" was live, along with "I Would Die 4 U" and "Baby I'm A Star".

It doesn't sink in until Prince hits the mic at 3:51. You start to tingle. You're witnessing history. You don't believe someone, that a band can be this good. In a year where seemingly every Grammy appearance was lip-synched, you'd think the ability to deliver sans crutches is a lost art. But it's not. That's why Prince owns the Super Bowl crown, that's why he still does great business today.

Yes, MTV blew him up. But before it all began, before you knew who he was, he and his band could BLOW!

Your cock deserves to be schlurped by me and others for not being able to use Google to find the info or for having manners and asking politely of the whereabouts of the Lefsetz letter in question.

Apology accepted.

It's the actual live and unedited recording of "Purple Rain" that made its way onto the

album.

If you want it, pm me. If you can find it on Youtube on your own (g'luck with that), more

power to ya.

And cease and desist with the douchebaggery - it's gratuitous.

Funny thing about this is Chuck never said he was giving us a link to never before seen Prince footage; but because a few of you have seen it before and he hasn't, somehow that's a reason to act stank? Maybe he's right about the dickhead claim.

I concur, dalsh327.

So far the original poster has posted links to Prince video's, offered to share files via pm's and deliberately flammed members....[img:$uid]http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/funkmunki/Smileys/33c456b2.gif[/img:$uid] im ever so sorry you have ended up with egg on your face.

Wriggle out of it as you please but your initial intention was that this was something special and newsworthy. For a so called Prince fan this is quite shocking....feel free to jump up and down like a child thumbs up!
