Review of Purple Rain (1984) by Ted Mahar for Portland Oregonian — 16 Aug 2001
The music is lively, loud, often powerful, sometimes raunchy, yet full of unexpected subtleties and nuances. The staging is frenetic but as perfect as the machines of the art can produce. This is first class music video.
