Hey all!

So about a decade ago someone I met on myspace (lol) sent me a burnt disc labeled "Jill Jones" and told me it was her 1987 self titled album. He didnt send a track listing, so I would just look it up. All articles etc I've seen list the album as 9 tracks long.

This cd I have is 14 tracks long (it's worth noting that track 1 and 2 on the official release, the Intor and Mia Bocca, are on one track instead of two). I literally never listened past track 7 on my cd (My Man) until very recently and I am desperatley trying to find out what these other tracks are. One or two sound like remixes of tracks on the album maybe but I have found no real way to get the titles/history of these mystery tracks. I've looked for full discography of her recordings, and i havent found anything that can point me in the right direction, so I come to you all!

I hope someone out there can help me! Thanks

I'd need some lyrics to know for sure, but back in the day when I made a cassette of Jill Jones debut album, I added the following bonus tracks to the end:

Mia Bocca (Extended Version)

77 Bleeker St. (Extended Version) (Mia Bocca B-side)

G-Spot (Remix)

Baby Cries (Ay Yah) (Extended Version) (G-Spot B-side)

For Love (4-Play Remix)

You Do Me (Ryuichi Sakamoto featuring Jill Jones) (1990)

I'd guess your bonus tracks are some of those.

Just having the names of songs to look at helped tremendously! THANK YOU. so, went back for a listen:

* track "9" is 77 Bleeker street for sure

*track "10" is Baby cries (ay yah) for sure

*track "11" is Mia bocca extended for sure

*track "12" has lyrics that go "ooh, i like it, baby baby baby, ooh i like it *yell*/my baby knows how to love me, my baby kno-ows" (so maybe My Baby Knows? which sounds like it may have turned into 'Baby Knows')

*track "13" has lyrics that go "im only flesh and blood, im only flesh and blood, i will do whats neccesary when ?loves? revolutionary" (so im guessing the name of it is flesh and blood lol)

*track "14" has lyrics that go "cant you feel the pumpin baby, boom boom pumpin baby, cant you feel the beat of my heart...come a little closer baby, put your hand on my chest/feel the beat of my heart pumpin through my dress...cant you feel the beat of my heart, boom boom" (aaaand I'm guessing this is called 'Boom Boom' lololol)

Track 12 is "My Baby Knows"

Track 13 is "Flesh And Blood"

Track 14 is "Boom Boom (Can't U Feel The Beat Of My Heart)"

All of the above are unreleased, intended for Jill's second Paisley Park album.

I love Jill. The only protege who gave Prince a run for his money as far as vocals...

Jill Jones is awesome

I wish I had a copy of Jills album, but I can't afford it on ebay.

Well it is about time that Jill got some recognition! Since his death there has been very little about Jill. I know that she posted some things on her facebook page in the past, concerning Prince, that were not all hearts and flowers. Still, she was with him for a long time and during the years that many consider his best years. She appeared in two movies and was a muse. She also had musical talent of her own. I think she lacked that xfactor that makes a person a star, but she was not only talented but beautiful.
