Go on IMDB sometime and you can see that nearly every week there’s a new remake coming out. Some might complain, but the fact is some remakes can be pretty damn cool — enter Prince and his new band 3rd Eye Girl. The Blessed Purple One (who was recently given a massive tribute at Carnegie Hall) has decided to release a “2013 Remake” of the classic opener to Purple Rain, “Let’s Go Crazy,” but everything has changed. The classic synths from that album are nowhere to be found; now the entire song is built on pummeling guitar vamps and stomping drums. It’s a raw, bluesy reboot that leaves you wanting to hear the rest of the album done in this style. Listen below while you dig out your old DVD of Purple Rain.
