Prince / Purple Rain vinyl picture disc

Although, bizarrely, there was no mention of a vinyl picture disc edition of the new remaster of Prince‘s Purple Rain album as part of last week’s press release, that does indeed seem to be one of the formats available for fans to purchase.

The picture disc features the iconic album cover image and is not only available now via Amazon in the US, but also features on the official Prince store, which surely confirms it.

There’s no UK pre-order link right now, although this format has been available for pre-order in Italy for a while, albeit with an incorrect release date at the moment. There’s been a bit of a debate as to whether the picture disc uses the ‘new’ 2015 remaster. No one seems to know for sure!

Prince’s Purple Rain will be reissued on 23 June. Other formats include a 3CD+DVD expanded edition, a 2CD deluxe edition and a black vinyl remaster. Read more here.
