Apollonia Podcast (with video) first guest JILL JONES

Looking forward to watching this 2nite:

The Queen of the iconic movie "Purple Rain," starring Prince and leader of the girl group Apollonia 6, Apollonia Kotero, is hosting her premiere Podcast, "Apollonia Studio 6", exclusively to the "Apollonia Studio 6" channel on YouTube. Apollonia, along with her co-host, Mr. Seth, has a kaleidoscope of guests from Music, Film, TV, Fashion, Photography, and of course, the Royal Purple Family just waiting to pull up a chair at the purple round table in Studio 6 to talk story, share insights, some laughs and maybe even a tear. This time, Apollonia is going to "Take U with Her!"


Welcome to "Apollonia Studio 6."

Look forward to the 2nd half. Anyone know anything about this dance teacher Katy that Jill mentioned Prince was seeing during the filming of Purple Rain?

I'm looking forward to part II as well, so many new stories. They didn't even reach her album yet and barely touched PR in part I.

That was better than I expected. Apollonia didn't need to be there honestly, but it's the most focused I've ever heard Jill so maybe that's because of her.

I've never heard some of those details, like how they did the 777 beat live, or her uncle being their early hair stylist.

I thought it was pretty well known that Earl Jones was related to Jill Jones. I think there's a pic somewhere from 85 or 86 where he's touching up Prince's hair while Prince was getting out of a car.

Yeah, it's from the filming of Under The Cherry Moon - the scene where Prince buys Mary the Porsche from the Jaded Three. - - - Anyone know anything about this Katy (who was teaching the whole cast to dance) that Jill mentioned Prince was seeing during the filming of Purple Rain?

Looking forward to part 2. Jill is a great storyteller and should have her own show. Apples and the other dude seemed a little sleepy and I'm not sure why they asked Jill to censor herself before recording. Wrong move for a podcast.

Oh probably, if I'd read it before it never clicked.

In this article, it mentions that during the early 1990s, when Prince was affiliated with the Minneapolis nightclub Glam Slam, he formed a dance company, led by choreographer Kat Carroll. Any chance Kat Carroll is Katy?

There may or may not be something coming!

Great article - haven't seen in 5 years so cool to read again. Thanks for sharing. Would love to know if Kat Carroll is the same Katy.

Can't wait for Part II either!

My favorite part was the story about playing keyboards during the Vanity 6 set. I really want to hear Jill's version of Nasty Girl! 😆

It's easy to imagine why Prince liked Jill, she comes across a empathic, intelligent and fun to be with! And down to earth

Intresting about 777 beat. Is she saying that Jellybean had to use both hands to do those high-hat triplets so she needed to hit the snare throughout?

.

.

Intersting about the night Jimmy and Terry didnt show up. I knew for the Time Prince played bass and Lisa played Keyboards while Jerome fake-played bass on stage. But didn't know that Jill tried to play Jimmy's parts for the Vanity set. Wold love to see/hear that set!!

I think she's explaining that the snare gets doubled up from the tape edit in a way that wasn't naturally playable live...but you're right that it's the hi hat. I could see Jill mixing them up in the moment.

He was involved with the collaborator on the dance company, so that would make a lot of sense.

Not sure wha tyou mean by from the tape edit. She said the word high hat and snare. What I meant it is that I think the high hat pattern is so intricate that maybe you need both hands to play it, thus not being able to play the snare and the high hat at the same time. So I assumed she meant that she was hitting the snare or claps on a pad on the and 4 while Jellybean played the high hat pattern using both hands.

Stock beat, but there's also splice in there. It sounds almost like a skip.
