Prince's Female Background Vocalists

Who would you rate the best female background vocalist for Prince? I think Boni Boyer and Rosie Gaines run a close race, but I'm kinda biased with Boni because she had that gospel-type-gut-bellying-ruffness with her (which I'm just a sucker for); whereas Rosie was very versatile with her runs and riffs (not to mention that her range was phenomenal).

I was partial to Boni. Rosie's cool, too, though.

Does anyone know if Prince recorded any other songs like "The Line" with Boni?

Essence

Marva King was also very accomplished but due to the era she came in she never got a chance to shine and make her personality known.
