Living Color totally. There are even a couple of "Prince" bootlegs out there (bad ones mind you), where the creator sluffed some of their songs on them. I think the Crucial bootleg (which I'm pretty sure did not have Miles Davis as a friend), even has a Living Color song, though I don't have it so I can't be sure.

Pigeonhed's 'The Full Sentence' album. The whole album sounds like Prince, especially the title track. Mind you they do cheat a bit by using samples of 'Sexuality' on the song 'Battle Flag'.

I'm sure MANY of you older P fans remember Shalamar's CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE album (circa 1987)...and it's front man MIKKI FREE...talk about ATTACK OF THE CLONES!!!
