Oh yeah of course , how can i forget that one !

Good picks above, heres some others:

Joy In repetition - Off ONA box set
Shh - Any version
Machine Gun aka Habbi
God
Why do you wanna treat me so bad
Beautiful Strange - Celebration version
Extra Lovable
Bambi
America
Any live version of She's Always in My Hair
I Could Never take the Place your Man
Tender Surrender/Villinova Junsction

The list could go on and on...

Seriously, showing people is a better way:

The Undertaker Vid - a must see
Whole Lotta Love, off the Vegas DVD
RRHOF

Though all of this is merely to show off his 'Flashy skills' - I mean musically what would 'Kiss' be without the little wah-wahed guitar or what would the Dirty Mind album be like wihtout its guitar parts. Sometimes the subtle uses are even better than the flashy ones.

Alexa De Paris

The absolute BEST guitar songs are:
1. Let's Go Crazy
2. Bambi
3. I'm yours
4. Hello
5. Purple Rain
6. She's always in my hair
7. I could never take the place of your man.

In that order. :

THE WAR

Have y'all forgotten about the brachiosaural guitar madness

in this song?



1-2-The Evolution Will B Colorized

It's a bootleg but one of the versions of Witness 4 The Prosecution is pure guitar magic

LET'S GO CRAZY!

Glass Cutter (demo)

When I lay my hands on you

Let's be a fucking elitist just for this one time and say "Hard To Get".

and Lovesexy!!!

The Question of U (Live) is amazing and also that one that goes 'All my friends call me Prince, all my women call me Electric Man' or something like that!!

THE RIDE

i ussually show joy in repetition on 'ona'

but if your friend is more of a jazz guitar man
dont look past 'she spoke to me' from the vault
it feautures an absolutely beautiful guitar peice at 4:40 into the song

let the song play after the peice onto the drums/horns solo
and get any jazz fan hooked on prince instantly!!!

Then again, I wonder if Mushanga meant for this to be aimed at studio releases or just songs in general.

They don't know anything about jazz... Or they don't care to listen to it... They're young guys who play in some "cool" garage bands and dress so that everyone will notice it.... They're into these quite recent rock bands like Velvet Revolver and LA Guns and Skid Row and Backyard Babies and that sort of stuff.... Blaah, I say...

i went on a holiday to greece this year
and met a group of some very closed minded greek metal heads
who even wore t-shirts regularly stating 'if it aint metal it aint music'
or something along those lines

anyway they teased me when they found out i listen to the
'little gay man' as they put it

luckily i had brought along about 15 prince albums
including one night alone live and live in las vegas dvd

i did manage to change their minds a little once they heard
his guitar playing.. i think i put on joy in repetition from the ona bonus disc first....their mouths literally opened and they were looking
at each other with their mouths open, in a funny yet confused way

they asked...this is prince???

it worked
and you walk away happy, knowing you showed someone something
they had no clue about

he is one of the most under-rated guitar players
and i just hate it

guitar players/likers just need to know about the extent of his talent
