Prince: Purple Rain 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl
Product Description:

180 Gram Vinyl
Premium RTI Pressing Includes Free LP Record Jacket Cover
Ships Double Boxed and Insured

Prince, who is in many minds a musical genius, designed "Purple Rain" as the project that would make him a superstar, and surprisingly, that is exactly what deservingly happened. Simultaneously more focused and ambitious than any of his previous records, "Purple Rain" finds Prince consolidating his Motown funk and R&B roots while moving boldly into pop, rock, and metal with nine superbly crafted songs. Although Prince's songwriting is at a peak, the presence of the Revolution pulls the music into sharper focus, giving it a tougher, more aggressive edge. Even with all of his new forays into pop Prince hasn't abandoned funk. Taken together, all of the stylistic experiments add up to a stunning statement of purpose that remains one of the most exciting rock & roll albums ever created! No matter how you look at it, this was a landmark album which helped define the 80's.

    We Care About What We Ship!
HASSLE FREE SERVICE FROM THE VINYL SOURCE YOU CAN TRUST!

All our vinyl titles are brand new, pristine, factory sealed (not just *sealed* which could be done out back with a sealing machine), stored in a climate controlled environment, and are inspected for any visible jacket damage by two different people before being double boxed and shipped. In addition to other protections, our packaging includes a layer of bubble insulation under the inner box to help protect the LP from the environment.  Our packaging isn't bullet proof, but it's a whole lot better than the way other companies ship vinyl.
All our vinyl titles are premium pressings sold for store sale and are never post-spec *seconds* sold to some mass merchants for internet sales to meet a price point. (These can be "special" pressings on recycled non-virgin vinyl done late in the life of a stamper past it's prime and rated number of stampings and are similar to the "Record Club" pressings some years ago. We hoped this baloney was over with.  )

US Recording never sells any product that's been handled by the public, as you will get from some media chains selling vinyl online from their various locations. US Recording is warehouse distribution only.

We show our own photos, both front and back of actual copies of what you will be shipped, so there should be no question what you will be getting, stickers and all.  Note: These photos may not reflect the exact version some other retailers are shipping, however, so be careful when shopping, especially if they only show you a stock photo of company artwork. (There can be different versions and qualities even with the same UPC Code.)



US Recording uses Ebay "Hassle Free Returns" for still sealed items.  If your vinyl is still factory and USR sealed (we add another layer of protection) and undamaged, return it per EBAY instructions within our return timeframe, in the same boxes and packing you got it in for safe shipping. Please do not use other retailer's "mailers" to return our product as we value even defective product more than that. Note: No returns accepted on unsealed titles unless it is defective per our definition of defective per Ebay policies unless it has a pressing defect.
We guarantee all vinyl you buy from us will play. Yes, we are a little more strict about returns but we do NOT reseal returns and sell them as new like other retailers (even some massive ones.) If your vinyl turns out to have a pressing defect, contact us through the Ebay message system (please do not open a case for a return! ) for a return authorization. We will refund your money upon receipt back of the defective copy, all shrink wrap and bags and free items, in the original shipping boxes we used to ship it to you, and within the time frame of our return policy. NOTE::  A pressing defect is only defined as any defect in the surface of the vinyl rendering it unable to play (it skips) such as a piece of label pressed into the grooves or a warp. We do not warrant any surface noise, downloads, free items, user damage, quality of the pressing, and anything to do with the jacket or sleeve.  (Side note: Someone actually wanted to return a $450 box set because a word was misspelled on a liner note...)
US RECORDING cannot do replacements or swap out titles. If you are returning a defective item or returning something still USR and Factory sealed, you will get a refund. You pay shipping.

ALWAYS wet clean all new LPs before their first use to remove record sleeve dust and other particles from manufacturing. We recommend Lasermedia VNC-4  Vinyl Record Cleaner because it does the job well without harmful solvents.
Disclaimer:  The product images shown are US Recording Media photos of a copy of the item for sale, but are not actual photos of the actual individual item you will be sent.   If the stickers on the title are an issue to you,  please contact us before ordering to make sure you get exactly what you're looking for!   PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THE PHOTOS BEFORE MAKING A DECISION TO BUY TO ENSURE IT'S THE VERSION YOU WANT.
