Justify that for me. I think prince tries to do everything and just ends up being average at everything.
The only one that really comes to mind is pink moon, so I'm no help with this.

Xavier Rudd - Food in the Belly; Dark Shades of Blue... these are definately worth a listen. He plays several instruments at the same time live, check him out on youtube.

Debut was a decent album, but you must remember that Bjork just did the singing - Nellee Hooper did the electronic mixing - Indeed, I seem to recall a number of reviews when the album came out saying Bjork's vocal stylings got drowned out quite a bit by the electronica. So it really depends on your interpretation of albums "by just one person" - I thought the topic was meant to refer to a single singer/musician composing all the songs, playing all the instruments, and singing all the vocals.
Otherwise, I'd put forth Matthew Sweet's best three albums, Girlfriend, Altered Beast, and the Japanese-only release Kimi-ga-Suki. All phenomenal.

This might not be everyone's favorite, but I still find it remarkable that Dave Grohl recorded all of the instruments on the Foo Fighters debut. Another example of this is some the later Sly and the Family Stone recordings, although they were not exclusively recorded by Sly Stone, it comes pretty close.
