19. Prince

19. Prince - Piano And A Microphone 1983

This may be the first posthumous album to make the Top 50. Prince has an enormous amount of recorded material, and left no instructions for how to deal with it after his death. He recorded everything he did in his home studio and even had recording equipment in other parts of the house, in case he felt like breaking into song. This particular album is just one session at a piano. It is incredible to hear his song-writing process on this album, the improvisations and even the toe tapping to provide a beat. You get to hear an early, early version of Purple Rain, some gospel and Joni Mitchell covers as well.
