“Hey, look me over / Tell me, do U like what U see?” The patience of Prince fans eager to mourn their fallen hero finally bears some catalogue fruit today, as the long-gestating expanded edition of Purple Rain–the first catalogue reissue of any of the late icon’s works–is confirmed.

Fans have been intently waiting for a reissue of Purple Rain for at least the past three years, when Prince finally acquired his original masters from Warner Bros. Records and promised to reissue the landmark 1984 album for its 30th anniversary. That never materialized, and when the world mourned his passing last year, one could only wonder if that reissue would ever turn up, even as it was promised following the release of posthumous compilation 4Ever and the reinstatement of his Warner-era catalogue to streaming services.

A glimmer of hope appeared as a purported leaked track list made the rounds last week, gaining surprising traction in mainstream publications. That track list is now confirmed, and digital services unveiled the first of 11 unreleased outtakes included on the package: a sterling studio version of “Electric Intercourse,” a sensuous slow grind swapped out for “The Beautiful Ones” in the final film and album. (This version has never even appeared on bootlegs, discovered only during a posthumous search of Prince’s fabled vault.)

The deluxe edition of Purple Rain will include a new master of the album, completed in 2015 at Paisley Park Studios and approved by Prince, plus the bonus disc of outtakes, including Prince’s version of “The Dance Electric” (a tune given to friend and former bandmate André Cymone), the “hallway speech version” of “Computer Blue,” an early uncensored version of “We Can Funk” (considered for the mid-’80s Crystal Ball triple album and finally recorded with George Clinton for 1990’s Graffiti Bridge) and the mournful “Father’s Song,” a musical portion of which served as the bridge for “Computer Blue.”

A third disc, exclusive to the “deluxe expanded edition,” features all the single sides released to promote the album, in both 7″ and 12″ formats. That means the B-sides “17 Days,” “Erotic City,” “God” (and its rare U.K. 12″ long version) and “Another Lonely Christmas,” plus edits and extensions of “When Doves Cry,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “Purple Rain,” “I Would Die 4 U,” “Baby I’m a Star” and “Take Me With U”–15 tracks in all.

Physical consumers are due for even more riches, with the deluxe expanded edition offering the first official DVD release of Prince and The Revolution Live! Recorded at Syracuse’s Carrier Dome in the spring of 1985, less than a month before the surprise release of follow-up album Around the World in a Day, this spirited show effectively capped the Purple Rain story once and for all, with performances of every track from the album (plus B-sides and outtakes “God” and “Possessed”) as well as hits, album cuts and B-sides mostly stemming from the 1999 era.

The Purple Rain reissue is available June 23. All three  sets–a 2CD, 3CD/1DVD and LP pressing of the new album master–are now available for pre-order!
