Dale,

Don't bother... it's a waste of time.

Your assessment of that Prince guitar solo is very close to my own - it's a whole bunch of Prince being Prince in showoff mode.

As far as his guitar playing is concerned, his rhythm work is where it's at - whether it's rock or rnb or funk rhythm. This is why he's a monster in my mind.

By the way, some of these fools are a bit insecure of who they are and as a result, they'll attempt to bully you here on the internet. You just gotta not dignify what they're saying and move on.
