Is DR's synth solo in "Head" the best synth solo ever?

If anyone knows something even close to this solo, let me know. It still amazes me to this day, like Eddie Van Halen's "Eruption."

Solo on Head is great.but to say that is the best solo is showcasing original posters lack of listening music outside Prince's world

I was thinking the Lovesexy Tour is the best!
