Is Purple Rain on Spotify?

Prince’s 1984 classic Purple Rain is one of the most iconic albums of all time. Released on June 25, 1984, this album was the soundtrack to the movie of the same name and featured some of Prince’s biggest hits, including ‘When Doves Cry’ and ‘Let’s Go Crazy’. The album was a massive success, selling over 13 million copies in the US alone and becoming one of the best-selling albums of all time.

The album has been praised for its mix of funk, rock, R&B, and pop sounds, as well as its emotional lyrics. It also features some incredibly memorable guitar solos from Prince himself. The album is widely considered to be a masterpiece and has been cited as an influence on many other artists.

For many years after its release, Purple Rain was only available on vinyl or cassette tapes. In 2007 it was released on CD for the first time, but it wasn’t until 2016 that it was made available to stream online. It is now available to stream on platforms such as Apple Music and Tidal.

Unfortunately, Purple Rain is not currently available to stream on Spotify. While Prince had a long-standing feud with record labels over royalties and streaming rights, he had made his music available on Spotify before his death in 2016. However, since then his estate has removed his music from the platform due to ongoing disputes with record labels over streaming rights.

While fans may be disappointed that they can’t stream Purple Rain on Spotify for now, there are still other ways to enjoy this classic album. It is still available for purchase on CD or vinyl from most major retailers and can be streamed from other platforms such as Apple Music or Tidal.

In conclusion, Purple Rain is not currently available to stream on Spotify due to ongoing disputes between Prince’s estate and record labels over streaming rights. However, it can still be enjoyed in other ways such as through physical purchases or streaming services like Apple Music or Tidal.
