Authoritatively written and including rare photography and memorabilia, this beautiful slipcased volume is the only illustrated gift book to examine Prince's most iconic album and film, Purple Rain. In 1984, Prince, along with his band, The Revolution, released what would become his best-selling album and a touchstone of 1980s pop culture.

Chapters cover:

A look at the groundbreaking film of the same name and its multiplatinum soundtrack
