Which album should be done Acustic?

With Alanis remaking Jagged little pill acoustic
(Which was done wonderfully) Which Album would you like to hear
done in the same way?

It's a difficult choice Jagged lil pill was filled with reinvent content on every track. My Choice of comparison would be Prince or Dirty Mind

To think about it For U & Pince should have been on Album and Dirtymind & Controversy should be one Album.

By the way here is a listing of His chart ratings.
The following albums reached the Top Twenty on either the U.S.
Billboard 200 albums chart, or the UK Albums Chart.

Year Album US UK
1982 1999 9 -
1984 Purple Rain 1 7
1985 Around The World In A Day 1 5
1986 Parade 3 4
1987 Sign 'O' The Times 6 4
1988 Lovesexy 11 1
1989 Batman 1 1
1990 Graffiti Bridge 6 1
1991 Diamonds And Pearls 3 2
1992 a.k.a. Love Symbol 5 1
1993 The Hits/The B-Sides 19 4
1993 The Hits 1 - 5
1993 The Hits 2 - 5
1994 The Beautiful Experience - 18
1994 Come 15 1
1995 The Gold Experience 6 4
1996 Chaos And Disorder - 14
1996 Emancipation 11 18
1999 Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic 18 -
2001 The Very Best Of Prince - 2
2004 Musicology 3 3
We all want a big hit again because
we want to relive the Hysteria & Pandemonium we experienced
when Purple Rain was Hot. Actually, he doesn't care if it happens again or not.

News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

Why does any of it have to be acoustic?

Well it shouldnt be limited to just one album if he did do it. But songs from many albums and not just the hits either.

Purple Rain would be the obvious choice, but the tracks on Parade would be great. Kiss, Girls and Boys, Sometimes it snows in April, etc.

None of them. I can't think of anything that would be more dull. He shouldn't have even done the acoustic one that he made.

Exactly what I would have said. Nothing could beat the song, Purpler Rain, on the acoustic piano - not unlike the bit that Prince played in the movie in the basement scene or like when he did it on Oprah.
