(Singles issued were : "Mia Bocca" b/w "77 Bleeker St.", "G-Spot" b/w "Baby Cries (Ay Yah)" and "For Love" b/w "Baby, You're a Trip" As the latest graduate of the Prince school of funk 'n' roll, Jill Jones is the most complete female artist touched by His Purple Highness. She has been with Prince since singing background on "1999", and has since worked with Teena Marie. The eight songs on this first album are written and produced either by herself or in tandem with Himself, and show her to be capitalizing on Prince's style yet determined that her own personality survives. She manages it in a way that puppets such as Vanity and Appolonia never could. Lyrically, Jill Jones can handle her mentor's bent for the pervier side of Iurrrve in a way that never sounds less than convincing, and often like quite good fun. Jill Jones is as polished and exciting a first album as anyone could wish for. It makes no mistakes and sets things up for something truly adventurous next time round. Also, it is perhaps an indication that Prince is at last ready to share his space with more than just a succession of mindless bimbos. reviewer : Lloyd Bradley source : Q magazine. **** (from a possible 5*) MIA BOCCA (SINGLE) / B.W. 77 BLEEKER ST . G-SPOT B/W BABY CRIES (AY YAH) FOR LOVE B/W BABY YOU'RE A TRIP. 1988 : GOOD LOVE - PRINCE (uncredited backing vocals) : This track originally appeared on the OST album for the movie "Bright Lights, Big City". It was originally planned for inclusion in Prince's planned, later aborted "Camille" project, and subsequently resurfaced on 1998's "Crystal Ball" collection. 1988 : THE LONDON SESSIONS - JILL JONES (unreleased demos) : tracks (heard) : Deep Kiss, Living Legend, Long Time, Unattainable Love, White Dogs, Some of Us, Red, Tango. Also possibly recorded during the same sessions, "Sweet Liberty", "Revolutionary" and "Ecstasy". In November 1988, Jill recorded this collection of songs at AOSIS (Audio & Visual) Studios in London. These songs were intended for presentation to Prince as submissions for her second Paisley Park album, but this was not to be the case. This material has a more personal edge to it, whether it be Jill imploring someone special not to " treat [her] like a fan " (Long Time). or imparting to us that if it's love we're looking for, "there's a place where gypsies come and go, and lovers say goodbye and hello." She is no longer asking "where, oh where" can the G-Spot be, as here she implores her anonymous lover for a "deep kiss that touches every part of [her]". The song "Unattainable Love" sees Jill finally putting into words a sentiment that had become a current theme in much of her material up to this point. She's grown up now, no longer the "star-struck fool" or earlier work - here it seems she is beginning to realise where she has gone wrong, and that the one, great love she wants may perhaps be "unattainable." Jill is now seeing 'red' - no matter what she does, it will never be enough. At last, the girl "who would suffer kisses from another" is standing up for herself. She explains that "the pressure of pain has gotten to the limit", and asks the subject of one song why he can't "taste the venom on [her] tongue" When first hearing these songs, the listener may be disappointed, especially if a fan of the Paisley Park album, and it may initially appear that many of these songs are mere fillers. But repeat listens provide many rewards. Jill's voice seems to scale new heights: she sings about how she wants to "live forever . to be a living legend", and you believe her. The arrangements and instrumentation here is not as lush as on her debut album, but it's the belief in this music that makes it work. Some of the material could quite easily be reworked - "Red", in particular, is a commercial, big sing- along chorus type of song, but it suffers from it's brevity. Musically reminiscent in places of "Purple Rain", another verse, an additional chorus and middle eight would make it a classic. It would not be too difficult to imagine Wendy & Lisa, or even Sheryl Crow, singing this one. Still unreleased to this day, this material would make a perfectly acceptable "commercial bootleg", similar to Prince's "Crystal Ball" release, although Jill has no plans for this to happen. 1989 : THE GROUND YOU WALK ON - JILL JONES (Warner Bros.) : From the motion picture 'Earth Girls are Easy'. Produced by Nile Rogers. Bizarrely, this is NOT the version heard in the film "Earth Girls are Easy", where the song is sung by Geena Davis. 1989 : YOU DO ME - RYUICHI SAKAMOTO (Virgin) : Lead Vocals. Produced by Ryuichi Sakamoto. Released as a single, and appeared on Sakamoto's "Beauty" album. 1990 : UNRELEASED DEMOS - JILL JONES (Paisley Park/Warner Bros.) The songs "My Baby knows how to Love Me", "Flesh and Blood" and "Boom Boom" (also known as "Boom Boom, Can't U feel the Beat of my Heart") were re-worked during these sessions. Saxophonist Candy Dulfer stated in an interview around this time that she had been at Paisley Park recording tracks for the new Jill Jones album. I suspect that a release was closer to fruition than any of us realised, since a video for the track "Boom Boom" was even filmed, suggesting that this was to be the debut single from the album. 1990 : C'EST SI BON (From Yves St. Laurent television spot). Produced by Trevor Horn. 1990: THE TIME - PANDEMONIUM (Paisley Park / Warner Bros.) : One of "Various Stellas" on the album (!) .
