Favorite Guitar Solo I know this has probably been done umpteen-million times here, but since I'm new, I wanna do it too!!!
I dig the one he does in Morning Papers, and of course, Purple Rain... damn, I gotta think about this one my damn self... close my eyes, what's it like, what's it like inside your tamborine? | |

These aren't limited to the solos but extend to the "soloing" guitar parts themselves. In no particular order:
Just my Imagination Graffiti Bridge Joy in Repetition Purple Rain (Syracuse '85) Diamonds & Pearls (Special Olympics ceremony version) Pink Cashmere The Ride (Crystal Ball version, among others) Empty Room (video version) Colonized Mind (he's killing it throughout, but especially after 4:00) God (instrumental) Alexis de Paris Mountains (12" -- jazz runs toward the end) A Love Bizarre (jazz solo) Crucial (guitar version) | |

Today I will say One Of Us has my favorite Prince guitar solo. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Joy In Repetition ONA Live
Smallclub is filled with great guitar work, not just Just My Imagination. Dreamer, although many non-fans will dismiss it as boring simple pentatonic work, I think that solo is really why I dig Prince's style so much, his emotion and phrasing is just phenomenal (and he can be flashy and show off some good speed frequently) and I'd put him right up there with "Guitar Gods" like Gilmour and Clapton, IMO. | |

That said, When Doves Cry is what made me pick up the guitar. That's probably my favorite intro to a song. God also has good guitar work. | |

probably the weirdest and therefore the one that sticks in the memory is the solo in the 'Guitar' Demo, which is by the way infinitely the finer version of the song in my opinion. I'm testing postive 4 the funk | |

Either Gold or The Morning Papers.
And oh yeah Just My Imagination is killer!!  [Edited 5/8/09 12:14pm] "Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done. | |

THE RAPTURE From the Scandolous Sex Suite! Or is it THE PASSION? I didn't even know last night was the ten year anniversary of Prince Night. I'm sure glad I went! I've been going off and on since 1997. | |
