Prince's classic album Purple Rain turns 25 years old this year. To commemorate that milestone SPIN magazine has compiled a track-for-track tribute to the record they're calling Purplish Rain.
The album will be available for free download to SPIN and SPIN.com subscribers on June 23rd.
Here's a look at the tracks and who's covering what:
- "Let's Go Crazy" RIVERBOAT GAMBLERS
- "Take Me With U" SHARON JONES & THE DAP-KINGS

I can't wait to hear Greg Dulli sing "When Doves Cry".
