Prince ‘Purple Rain’ Deluxe & Deluxe Expanded Editions Feature Unreleased Material

Both Deluxe and Deluxe – Expanded Editions of Prince’s landmark Purple Rain album are finally coming on June 23 through NPG Records and Warner Bros. Records. A special fan pre-order has just gone live and includes an instant grat download of the previously unreleased track “Electric Intercourse.” The track, which can be streamed below, was recorded in 1983 and only heard through live versions in the past.

The two-CD deluxe edition of Purple Rain features six tracks that according to a statement, “have never been released or distributed in the collector or bootleg community.” Among the tracks are the previously mentioned “Electric Intercourse,” plus “Father’s Song,” “We Can Fuck,” Katrina’s Paper Dolls” and more. It also includes the official 2015 Paisley Park Remaster from the original tapes that was prepped by Prince ahead of his death.

Purple Rain’s Deluxe – Expanded Edition features all of the elements of the Deluxe Edition as well as a third disc of Single Edits & B-Sides and a concert DVD recorded live at a Prince & The Revolution performance held at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse on March 30, 1985. While the footage has circulated before, the audio and video have been restored from the original production master tape.
