And a Few More Purple Rain: Music on Film Reviews...

Well, the critic's reviews are coming in fast and furious now.

Popstars Plus says: "“Music on Film: Purple Rain” is very well written by Muir, who has written a number of well known books on movies and entertainment, has done an excellent job of research and writing this book as well...If you liked the movie, this is a perfect book Music on Film for you..."

Cinema Sentries says:  "The  series issues short works (about 130 pages or less) analyzing key movies portraying music in some fashion. The short length limits the detail, only allowing for a general overview of the film. Despite that limitation, Muir's examination of Purple Rain provides a fascinating look at a classic rock film, and Magnoli's stories emphasize the roadblocks filmmakers may encounter, even before shooting a single frame."
