What's the best album credited to the NPG?

ie. NPG / Prince & NPG albums:

Diamonds And Pearls
prince
Gold Nigga
Exodus
Newpower Soul
The War
(debatable if this is an album)
One Nite Alone...Live

For me, ONA...Live (mainly because of It Ain't Over), although as far as 'original' albums go, probably prince. Oh, I don't know. I love The War, and I've always had this strange liking for Gold Nigga (I'd love to hear an instrumental version of this album). But then, Exodus is funky. And D&P has some real solid parts... Even NPS has its moments.

Love Symbol, without a doubt.
Personally . I think we are all Boring with No Lives cause all we do is talk about Prince,Criticize and Gossip. I need a Horny Man is what I Need and probably so do most of yas. We are Sexually Frustrated what we R... Amen..!!! - zelaire

One Nite Alone...Live! - the best fy far. The only one that shows true musicianship and excellence of the NPG. By the way - current lineup rocks!

ONA LIVE is a great album, but as a studio album I prefer EXODUS much more. That is pure funk, although it has some weak moments. But Hallucination Rain alone, makes it worth having it...

I think there are more albums which in fact are performed by the so-called NPG! The whole nineties stuff is played by the NPG (with the exception of Rave and several Crystal Ball - The Vault etc. tracks), and
on all the tours Prince called his live musicians "the NPG". So you can't say only these seven albums were credited to the NPG.
For me, only D & P, prince and Gold Nigga were comparable (the classic NPG line-up!).and D & P is the absolute best of the
