Prince Estate Announces Two New Albums, First Since Tragic Death: Greatest Hits and Even More Purple “Purple Rain”

Share

Prince’s estate is releasing their first two albums since the tragic death of the pop star last April. One will be a new greatest hits collection, and other is an expanded “Purple Rain.”

Circle November 22 for “Prince4Ever” which includes a 1982 recording called “Moonbeam Levels” – a previously unreleased song later considered for but not used for the Rave Unto The Joy Fantastic album.

The expanded, remastered “Purple Rain” will come in the spring with a second CD of outtakes and so on. No date yet. But I imagine they’ll shoot for April 21, the 1st anniversary of Prince’s death.
