weirdly, i listened to my vinyl copy of "Purple Rain" two weeks or so ago.....

it sounded a little crackly (y'know, that thing went through a *lot* in college) but the music still sounded great. i saw that damn movie three times in two weeks the year it came out. if i had to pick one movie that represented the mid eighties to me, that one is in the running.

I had it rolling today at my desk at work. - Dark Callisto Apr 21, 15:31 4
- a lot of it is just burned into my brain. i even snuck in to just watch parts of it beyond the 3 times i paid to see it that summer.....nm - x Apr 21, 15:35 2
  - it's kind of hard to believe a studio just gave a musician (even Prince) however much they must have given him to make that movie - dj fingerblast Apr 21, 15:38 1
    - totally. and at that point, anything even vaguely resembling a musical was total anathema.... - x Apr 21, 15:43
- (the movie, that is. The album itself is probably in the running for the one I've listened to the most in my life.) -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 21, 15:32
