Have a look at this compilation I made

I made a 2-CD Prince-compilation for a friend. I called it "Essential Prince". Since the only two albums he´s got are "Purple Rain" and "The Rainbow Children", there are no tracks of those two on it. What do you think?

CD1:
1999
If I Was Your Girlfried
I Love U, But I Don´t Trust U Anymore
I Hate U
Papa
I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man
Something In The Water (Does Not Compute)
Raspberry Beret
Anna Stesia
7
A Million Days
Mountains
Gett Off
She´s Always In My Hair
Sometimes It Snows In April
Wasted Kisses
Gold

CD2:
Starfish And Coffee
The Morning Papers
Anotherloverholenyohead
Cream
Little Red Corvette
The Love We Make
Under The Cherry Moon
Tangerine
Dinner With Delores
When U Were Mine
Erotic City
Lovesexy
Had U
Curious Child
Dreamin´About U
Dolphin
The Question Of U
Girls & Boys
Condition Of The Heart
Dear Mr. Man
See the man with the blue guitar, maybe one day he`ll be a star...

That's a great finish to the compilation, just DON'T have "Dear Mr Man" as the closing track. It's too new to be judged properly - I think it's merely okay, some think it's great, other think it's awful.

Pick a song that's tried and tested. I know he has Purple Rain, but that should always be the closer to a compilation. To spice it up, maybe put a live verson of PR on there instead of the album version. I recommend one of the ONA Tour versions (perhaps from the Japanese leg or maybe from Berlin?).

I think Dear Mr. Man works well as a closing song. It is smooth and laid-back. My friend witnessed the ONA-tour and was impressed with the material on TRC. Dear Mr. Man is the song that reminds me most of the TRC material, so I think it works.
