Really great!! I would buy this now!! There are a few tweeks I would make (i.e. I would have to find space for The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker, Joy in Repetition, Time, Revlation...). I will have to try and make a track-list of my own. Just curious, did u do each disc by time or just by 14-15 tracks per disc? Also, what would be your tracklist for Unrealeased Prince and/or Vault Prince?

I could'nt do it, there are too many songs that i find essential.

Ideally, we'd have a 39 cd boxed set called 'The Purple Box' or something like that, maybe with some cool packaging and a disc or two of outtakes.

Matty Jam, I really like your list.

.

I would add the following songs:

- Paisley Park

- Still Would Stand All Time

- Let's Have a Baby

- 4 The Tears in Your Eyes (acoustic version)

- Either Comeback or Until U're in My Arms Again

- Starfish and Coffee

- Future Baby Mama - He won a Grammy for it.

- Somewhere Here on Earth

- Black Muse

- Way Back Home

.

From your list, I would remove:

- Around the World in a Day

- Screwdriver
