When Prince died, there was little doubt as to which of his songs would be used as the soundtrack to the world's mourning.

Only "Purple Rain" has done more to introduce or define Prince to the world than "1999."

Jack White also paid nearly $50,000 for an original copy of the scrapped 1986 album.

It was impossible to keep pace during his lifetime. Here's how to catch up.

Prince's first 14 albums were all released in the now-extinct packaging format.

Deluxe edition also includes a full-length 2011 concert video.

He's mentioned alongside luminaries like Martin Luther King, Jr. and Albert Einstein.

Unreleased track features a strong P-Funk influence and a blistering guitar solo.
