Stamina — the ability to funk until dawn — has always been Prince’s strong suit. So while this double album runs the gamut from house to Hendrix, R&B ballads to shimmering power pop, its creator’s energy never seems to flag. And never has his curiosity about women strayed into so many unpredictable corners. A masterpiece.

STANDOUT TRACKS: “U Got the Look,” “I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man”
