The tune to convince any rock fan?

Someone asked me for a primer and I said to take the "crash course" starting with Bambi on the Undertaker. The walk-off home run of P's rock tunes, IMO. It even has an Allmans-esque noodle-jam at the end, for Christ's sake.... Great ride/crash action at the open...Michael B's snare is painfully tight (the head sounds like it's going to pop!)...and Sonny's silkily aggressive play during the extended guitar solo is really badass. That's big sound from three dudes.

I know not everyone does, but I like...er...I like It There, too as a good demo for newbie rock fans.

It's difficult giving any rock fans some Prince stuff, because Prince often adds some baroque flourishes to his guitar-heavy tracks.

The Undertaker is definately the album to give them though, it feels much more raw and earthy than anything else he's done.
