Strongest Guitar Performance

What would you say his P's strongest guitar performance?

two parts: * released
* concert or live

for me:

1) Released: Let's Go Crazy (1984), it was his Iconic guitar hero part in the MTV video or the movie that made me want to pick up a guitar and not think that rock guitar is an icky, dissonant, loud instrument mainly played by guys who can't sing.

2) Concert or live: Endorphin Machine or Bambi or The Question of You (1990)

3) RRHOF (2004): just for the surprise of seeing P on stage with other, recognized musicians outside of his normal orbit and playing with the showmanship you would expect of a Major Rock Star in the Hall of Fame.

The only time Prince has put a heavy guitar riff through the whole song is Bambi.Live would be 'Joy in repetition' 11 minute version.

Hmm, released there r way 2 many but off the top of my head... the ending solo of Let's Go Crazy, the solo in BatDance, and I love America all the way through. Concert/ Live... the 1st concert I saw was the Act 1 tour at Radio City Music Hall (all 3 nites) and I was mezmorized when he used the Boss Digital Delay box on his solo. I also like a lot of his guitar work he did in rehearsals and 1 off shows during the '82-'84 period.

[b] lol i think prince is underrated when it comes 2 his guitar playing.After watching his live version of Whole lotta lovehe makes Clapton andMay look like amatures.prince is up there with the worlds best,as he gets older and his dancing decreases u will see more great guitar performances by the purple 1.His guitar performance on 1+1+1=3 is out of this world.go and see it ' lol lol

Live - 2

1 would have to be during Lovesexy when he did the whole, Just my Imagination if I had a Harem parts and also The Cross.

2 would be during Purple Rain when he broke into Little Drummer Boy - London Earls Court Gold Experience Tour
In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream
