best NPG lineup?

much love for the NPG... By far Prince's most funked up band. Would you agree?

-----

someone pointed out that Prince still calls his band NPG... I thought he retired it because I haven't heard it said in awhile

so I change the thread.... what's the best NPG lineup?

its still the npg now! in its 5th line up

1st = rosie, sonny, michael b, levi, tommy, gameboys, diamond + pearl
2nd = michael, sonny, mr hayes, tommy
3rd = kirky j, mike scott, mr hayes, rhonda
4th = john blackwell, rhonda, renato
5th = cora, josh, mr hayes

i dig #1

1st group was the best minus Gameboyz and D and P, then 2nd group. Don't really care much for the rest, except for Morris.

Sorta the second, but:

Either

- when it was just Sonny & Michael

Or

- when they were joined by Eric Leeds

Too Funky.

sonny, michael b, levi, tommy, mr hayes
