Mine is RUDE BOY (80- 81).
LOVE the raw and edgy FUNK AND ROLL. Prince was hungry, fierce, and un-afraid.

That list is ridiculous. Why don't you just list every album and ask what is people's favorite, not that all this hasn't been done a million times already. Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. |

Yeah, I'm not so sure about these eras as they seem a bit arbitrary at times. F
or example: 1991 and 1992-1994 are not separate eras as you have described/listed. 1992 has much more in common with the Diamonds and Pearls era than it does 1994. "New Power slide...." |

Purple music era (1982/1983)
this was an incredible,exciting era.Prince released his best album (‘1999’),he had two badass protege groups (The Time and Vanity 6) and he was starting to crossover into the pop mainstream.It was all starting to come together. . [Edited 4/16/21 19:15pm] | |

i will go with purple music era, 1999 so good
Neat to put it as an era as opposed to just a record, like someone mentioned, Vanity 6 and the Time, the look was coming together (nice to see a bit more clothes on!), the dancing was amazing, Jill and Lisa, the incredible B-sides. Only downside is short concerts still, so much more of 1999 could have been performed each concert.
kudos to the Purple era and the 79-80 era (think that straddles a couple of them), Prince was such a great early release and the energy and guitar of those dirty mind shows, incredible merf |

1992-1994, though I'd probably include 95 in that category. | |

Roughly '91 to '98, so D&P to Crystal Ball (1998), give or take. | |

82-88 - so much youth, variety, energy and high quality output. | |

Been a fams since the first single. But, Prince, Controversy, 1999 and to just a little lower extent DM and PR are the death bed albums that will be on my mind. So, however we can work the first 3 into numbers is what will be my choice.
