FUNKYNESS

No one ever suggests Come On - that entire New POwerSoul album is stank as hell and one of those maligned Prince records that I love

Anything Camille related is hard to beat. Sexual Suicide has always been a personal fave. The third movement of Joint 2 Joint is pretty sick, too. I wish he would have made a whole song out of that section. "Flames of desire, sweet gypsy moans."

"That's when stars collide. When there's space for what u want, and ur heart is open wide."

Head and New Position are the funkiest he record. DSMR and Housequake from Small Club Bootleg are the funkiest live.

Head is surely up there

We Can Funk (any version has always been one of my fave's)

Chelsea Rodgers, Lavoux, Sticky Like Glue + Ol Skool Company are deffinately worth a mention too.

I don't know, but that cassette Prince sold from the Jam Of Year Tour with the live version of Face Down performed in New York might take it.

"Play that mutha f*ckin' bass!" I know it's a live version instead of studio but, man that's funky.
