Here is this week’s playlist – songs picked by a reader from your suggestions after last week’s callout. You read the topic – songs about purple – and two songs immediately came to mind. Sadly one of them, Purple Rain by Prince, has already been listed for a previous topic – eccentric songs – so wasn’t eligible. Speaking of Deep Purple (the band) – their erstwhile lead singer Ian Gillan recorded a song about a Purple Sky. Purple, violet and now lilac.
