SOTT wins due to its breadth. It's P's full genius on display. Everything that made him great is included. PR is great but relatively limited compared to SOTT. If PR had all of the b-sides included then it would be as great as SOTT. But that's not the case. As is PR is missing the Funk - Baby I'm a Star is funky but mostly in concert. The album version doesn't bang hard enough. Meanwhile SOTT has Housequake and If I Was Your Girlfriend and Beautiful Night. Funk in spades. Add Erotic City to PR and that Funk card is punched. Also - Adore, the GOAT Prince slow jam. Beautiful Ones ain't a slow jam. So PR doesn't have one. SOTT has TWO slow jams.

Again, PR is great but SOTT is greater.
