Purple Rain album by Prince and the Revolution, signed on the front cover in felt tip, "'Love God,' Prince." In fine condition. The record is included. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL. Released a month before his smash film of the same name, Purple Rain proved a rousing commercial success that elevated Prince into true international stardom. Subsequently, Prince became the first singer to simultaneously hold the No. 1 album, single, and film in the U.S., with Purple Rain receiving the Academy Award for Best Original Score in 1985. Signed copies of Purple Rain are exceedingly rare and desirable, with this album representing the first we have offered in over 20 years.
