Here are mine,but not in order:

Rave un2 the joy fantastic live 18.8.88,it´s a diffcult solo with a fantastic groove.I mean the hole song.
Just my imagination, live 26.7.88 in Camden,it´s full of emotions and with nice scales.His parallel singing is beautiful.
A solo from the jazzgig from 5.12.87. It´s a solo with a clean sound.I don´t know the name.I think it´s the difficultst solo from Prince that i have ever heard,but very nice too.
The Ride from Brüssel 13.08.98 it rocks so, i was there and it was like have sex with C.Crawford.I think it was so.
Very loud and beautiful.
Zannale he sreams with so many emotions.
Many Purple Rain solos (9.6.90, 5.6.90, 12.8.86,30.4.85 etc.)
Days of wild from the radioshow,for me incredible,so dirty,so crazy,it sounds like he was on drug.He plays always this one tone again and again,but howwww,only he can do this.Technical not very clean,but it don´t have to.He tooks all his emotions in the solo.I think Jimi Hendrix couldn´t play it better.Nobody could it.
Anna Stesia from (8.7.88, 15.7.88) I mean the part after the song.
Bambi from (Tokio 90,DenBosch 10.8. 93,Paris 10.7.92)
The question of u,the melody is sooo beautiful and his play of course.
I love many funk solos,he did during the 95/96 period with his jazz guitar from epiphone,for example the aftershow from London in emporium during Sex machine.It`s sooooo funky he should do more of this,because his rhythm grooved like nobody could do it better.
I play guitar now for 12 years after hearing the solo from Purple Rain in Syracuse.I play many solos from Prince,i had learn so much from this man.He plays never a solo two times.And almost every solo is great.Some solos are very bad,like the final solo from she is always in my hair in 26.7.93,it´s so simple and i don´t know why he plays such fucking shit.He can do it 100000 times better.
All in all, i love his guitar play and style.
Peace on earth,please.

8) Now eye want 2 pull out every song & study them. This is what eye like 2 talk about. The music. Off the top of my head, not in any order:

Jack U Off,
Bambi,
Let's Go Crazy,
Zannalle,
Peach (live)
The Ride,
Ronnie Talk 2 Russia,
Purple Rain (can still have the hairs on my arms stand on
end)
and A Question Of U. The first time eye heard this song was May 6, 1990 at the dress rehearsal 4 the Nude Tour in St. Paul. Prince asked "Do u want 2 hear something new?" Like we would say no. It blew me away! That night I got a speeding ticket on my way home. Cost me $60.00. 8)
Shut up already...Damn

Gett Off (what more can i say?)
Let's Go Crazy (such an obvious choice it does get overlooked)
