another great one is: vienna club U4. 1987-05-28

the solo in the "instrumental/got my mind made up/nine" medley.

it goes on for about 7 minutes and i'm always amazed when i'm

listening to it, by the fact that his hands didn't cramp up during it.

it's so incredibly fast. dead

IN Montreux, Prince slams guitar in ALL kinds of directions!

Empty Room (As mentioned so many times, it is so great!)

All The Critics Love U---(Damn..I mean I really AM addicted to that video, he is just on fire, and the guitar is crazy!)

I just remember 'Get It Up' Now Prince really goes all out there too!

Joy In Repetition..?

from the ONA.. Live boxset.

Joy in repitition is my all time favorite

He performed it during North Sea Jazz Festival and the memory still gives me chickenpocks.

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

im by no means an instrumentalist, so i dont know what is 'technically' his most skilled, etc.

but

the guitar solos in BATDANCE just KILL! they sound wild and dark and vicious

its probably an odd choice, but in 20 years they never get old 4 me

I'm not sure Prince is playing the solo in Little Red Corvette?

controversy99 said:

Here's my list:

1. Little Red Corvette

2. She Spoke to Me

3. Sexy MF

4. It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night

What, those aren't Prince, you say? Ok, fine.

wink

Official releases:

1. Crismon & Clover

2. Eye Hate U

3. Alexis da Paris

4. Kiss

5. We Do This

5b (because I just can't get enough). Xogenous

Unreleased

1. Just My Imagination, August 1988

Um, I was joking about that first group. Numbers 1, 2, and 3 are great solos, but they're not Prince and # 4 is Wendy on rhythm guitar without much solo-ing at all.
