Yo !!!

That's a hard question because a lot of the music that's recorded when you hear live, it just blows your mind.

Ooooh, another very funky jam. Good choice.

This forum has made me doubt my ability to determine what a funk song is anymore.

Not that I had a real firm grasp on the definition before, but now I definitely don't.

Billy Jack Bitch

hands down...

Le Grind

I think Adore is his best funk song.

I'd also add the extended version of La La La and Le Grind.

You hate Billy Jack Bitch????????????

Oh hale naw.

As mentioned, a lot of the stuff being mentioned aren't really proper funk vamps, but that's okay!

That said, I'd have to say that "Lady Cab Driver" is his finest funk piece.

Mee too ..I always do the "sway from left to right" dance and kick when I listen to it.....you know.... when the chorus..and the oooowooo-oooowooo-ooooh part kicks in?...like he performed at the AMA's 95?

I don't think the groove is very original or interesting... ...now try to hit me even harder!

BTW: I'm quite surprised that Musicology was mentioned so often. Though I can appreciate the infectious groove, the song seems to go nowhere, more like a nice idea that didn't become any bigger.

Really? I loved it from the moment I heard it. Glad you like it now, its a great song and very nice way to pay tribute to those that influenced him.

It was one of those songs that instantly I jumped up and danced too, probably why I loved it so much. Baby Knows and Black are funky too, I love them also!

Musicology was the second prince album i heard, purple rain being the first. As great as PR is, it doesnt show prince's funky side. I guess i had to familirise myself with more of prince's work before truly appreciting his versatility.

I also loved the live version he did on leno, i think its still up on youtube, i have downloaded it anyway before it gets removed:-D

the live version on Leno was killer... Prince just kills that song live period
