1001 Albums Summary

The first couple songs were harder to listen to, eventually I started to really enjoy the album and appreciate the more modern and almost futuristic elements of the album. As for the title track, Purple Rain, on one hand I didn’t care for the chorus, I think maybe because Prince was so influential, his style was copied a lot, so the style just feels boring and has church music connotations, but towards the end of the song, I grew to really enjoy the instrumentals and felt that ot was a powerful ending to the album. Overall, I really enjoyed the more experimental and upbeat parts of the album, and if I listen to it one more time, I think I will love it.

Great
