Once upon a dark, music-less time, First Avenue was a Greyhound station. But Prince’s 1984 film Purple Rain features a dazzling collection of performances by The Time and his own The Revolution on the First Avenue stage – so the venue plays a starring role in the semi-autobiographical story about “The Kid’s” (a.k.a. Prince’s) rise to fame.
If First Avenue is the glamorous diva, then 7th Street Entry is her snarling little terrier. One that served as ground zero for a different kind of “Minneapolis sound.”
