the last night of the purple rain tour. purple rain.

i'm sure most folks will disagree with me, but i think that was some freakin' amazing guitar work.

i'd rank the RNRHOF performance up there too, though there was something kinda affected about that solo...it was still brilliant, nonetheless.

2 Many guitar jams 2 choose from.....

ANY L.A. 2002 shows (inc. aftershows).

I'd have to say after losing MANY nights sleep
tracking down & trying to download & much trading & U know.

The ULTIMATE...

"GOOD MORNING 2 U", into "BAMBI" into "WHOLE LOTTA LOVE"

from " Aftershow in PARIS "ONA" 2002 @ Le Bataclan"



Check it if you can!

FISH cool

The version of Purple rain he played on the lovesexy tour rehearsal bootleg "Prince's Erotic City" with a huge winding solo , really fine guitar work .

ROHOF was the best in my opinion, but I think that Purple Rain live is a close second, so close that the two can become one!
