The big difference is that it has one of the best movie soundtracks of all time (a number of songs are performed in their entirety). I love the album, but was pleasantly surprised by how well all the songs meshed into the movie. Would recommend.

Everything about Purple Rain is awesome. I wish I could watch it right now.
