    You pretty much nailed it. She said in an interview that she always wanted to do an album and Prince even encouraged her to pursue it. She said he even had songs for her, but she wanted to see what she could do on her own first. She said over and over again that "she was not fired!"

Before meeting Cat, I was actually cast as a featured extra along with a few of my friends in the Raspberry beret video! Prince was cool quirky funny and down to earth to work with!👍🏽 I so wish there were video cameras to shoot behind the scenes of the Raspberry beret video so you guys will have a love the awesome stories me and my friends shared with Prince.💜 on another awesome note Cat treated me and my friends to the Love Sexxy concert with backstage passes! Also ironically I booked my first time six month gig in Tokyo Japan towards the end of the Love Sexxy tour! Of course, Cat invited me and my new friends and my Tokyo band to see her with Prince tonight at Tokyo Dome! Awesome memories I cherish!💜Love you Cat😘

    Choosing between Prince and Bowie would be a terrible (and wonderful) thing to have to do. But, all things considered I have to say that 1. As a dancer, she almost certainly got a better showcase than she would have with Bowie, since that wasn't as important in his shows as it was for Prince and 2. For the era in question, Prince was putting out the stronger work at the time. Sign O the Times & Lovesexy were infinitely stronger than the Labyrinth Soundtrack and Never Let Me Down.

    • @PrincesFriend
      @PrincesFriend  5 лет назад +9

      I would have chosen Prince too, even though I love Bowie. The music is just much more danceable, imo

    • @Moneytane1976
      @Moneytane1976 5 лет назад +6

      I agree, the late 80s was not Bowie's time and Never let me down and Tin Machine are just awful. Also many of the Black women in his tours were mostly women he had it off with like Ava Cherry. I am sure had she joined and fallen in love with him - Iman would have put the kibosh on it. I love Bowie too, but he is not exactly a very rhythmic or funky soul artist.

    • @ptoyman
      @ptoyman 5 лет назад +10

      Adorecream 1976 Totally agree. With Bowie, Cat would’ve been more background or prop. Bowie didn’t dance but he did have incredible style and presence. But with Prince there was interaction both physically and emotionally. Cat seemed to be an intricate part of a musical story line in Sign O’ the Times and that special magic continued with the LoveSexy Tour. That magic would’ve never been captured with Bowie. We actually believed there was a sexual “cat and mouse” relationship between Cat and Prince on stage. Very unique. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it and doubt that I ever will again.

    Prince was a Composer/Arranger
    He composed his music with lyrics,
    He was strategic with his album lay out, he also composed the energy around it all including the image and personas of the people on and off stage, that was part of his genius, with Prince everything and everyone had its season

  • @ToniWellons

    Cat Glover was and still is a real one! I didn’t know about her until 2016 but I love her fire and energy as a dancer. Very freestyle. Her and Prince were magic on stage. I thought they could’ve been together but it was all professional. She was the centerpiece, the muse during that time 1987-88. She like Prince had a dirty mind as well (her words) and they got each others talent and played up their onstage personas. I heard in an interview where Cat said she left Prince on her own and she was never fired. Also, she dispelled any negative rumors about her and Prince and she was quick to put you in your place if you talked any mess about her! She wanted to pave her own path and there’s nothing wrong with that. She lives a rather quiet life now and has two daughters who look just like her. But I was following her on instagram and she is still very humble and still has that energy and sass and I saw a video recently where she rapped her entire part from Alphabet Street and totally killed it! Cat was a sensational part of the Prince legacy and he was definitely lucky to have her in his universe. The albums and performances were always fierce, high energy and so funky and midblowing to watch. When Cat danced, aw shockwaves!! The Sign O’ the Times and LoveSexy eras were one of my all time favorite Prince eras because of the entertaining and vibrant LoveSexy band. Man such an awesome time!

    Cat made the only choice she could make. Her time with Prince would be limited regardless, as we now know he needed to shake things up for his band & shows and reinvigorate his creativity. Even though it didn’t work out the way I’m sure she hoped at the time, she still made the only correct choice. Great video as always.

    Great post! Keep up the great work. Prince was such a force of incredible, pulsating, purple, pop energy, he could play lots of instruments, sing, dance, act. be theatrical, etc. and Cat brought the same amount of energy, theatrics, talent but through her dance, acting, etc. The were an amazing combination.
    She made him more playful, fun, and unpredictable live.

    Haha your Cat impression 😍 very cool, PF! I love your presentations 💜
    A lot of people don’t know that Cat had a child prior to meeting and working with Prince. She left the child in Chicago with her parents to tour with the Lovesexy band. I was surprised to hear this in an interview she gave awhile back. After hearing that I always assumed that’s why she didn’t wait around for him to finish the Batman soundtrack, not positive, however. But that she had incentive to move on.
    I liked her okay but always felt she was uber intense and it often left me feeling like she maybe wanted to drag Prince backstage and beat him up LOL rather intimidating in the delivery IMO just sayin’ but his music was maybe more suited at that time. 🤷‍♀️ shrug.
    Have a great weekend!

      I thought their chemistry was amazing. Explosive. It appeared to me she 'pushed' Prince on stage further than I have ever seen any of his dancers prior or after. And their performance as a whole was all the better for it. She's probably one of the significant draws as to why I keep returning to the 'Sign 'O' the Times' concert movie over and over. She was dismissed way too soon.

      I don’t necessarily agree but you’re welcome to your opinion as I am mine. 🤷‍♀️ shrug
      In my opinion the stage performance and chemistry was way better btw Cat and Sheila than Cat and Prince. Cat had no formal dance declipine and was just okay IMO I do like her but no way was she the best. I bet she was better at break dancing that’s what her style reminded me of. I’ve read Prince suffered several injuries on stage during that time period so it was probably a more erratic/crazy time, and maybe suited to the music.

    I owned that shirt. I bought it at the show at the LA Sports Arena in 88. I was 18 and now I’m 50😐...I have to say that Cat was so integral to the Sign O the Times and Lovesexy era. There was something so special bout her and watching her and Prince dance was mesmerizing. I loved her rap in Alphabet Street. Back in the day there wasn’t internet and in 89 i was going to the record stores looking OBSESSIVELY for her album. There was a blurb in the music rags but then it never materialized. This 19 yo Prince/Cat fanatic was so heartbroken to not get that album BUT to hear she’s still around makes me so happy. There were so many stupid rumors. I saw you video about the documentary questions and my perspective was all off. I hope they figure out how to be respectful and PAY THESE ICONS so we get a true and heartfelt picture. Anyhow... Thanks for the great info! I’m in a SOTTT rabbit hole right now with the deluxe out. As a 37 year fan of his music im digging all these stories. 💟☮️✝️

    Yes Prince never forgot a good friend and he does not receive anywhere near the credit he deserves. And yes Cat is by far the most talented dancer he ever worked with and their on stage chemistry was smoldering hot!! And I want to thank her and you PF for keeping Prince's legacy alive. I have not heard anything about a paternity suit, but I have always heard the story that she was pregnant by Prince. Who knows. I have seen pictures of her son, there is a bit of a resemblance. But that is their business, if it were true I don't think she would need to file a paternity suit against Prince. I think Prince would have been man enough and honorable enough to take care of things without a paternity suit. Maybe she didn't want everything publicized because of all the attention it would receive. Maybe she just wanted a quiet life and to raise her son. I wish her the best. Thanks for the video.

    Hey Prince's Friend. Not sure if you heard the new episode of Prince Podcast w/ Cat that just came out but she gave another reason she left. Basically while she was on retainer with Prince, Prince fired Steve Fargnoli and told her that she would have to fire him as her manager too if she wanted to continue working with him. A week later he called her and asked if she had done it, and when she said no he said then we have a problem & can't work together & she replied "ok we can't work together anymore then" and hung up the phone. That simple. Then she went to Europe & started recording her album, which Prince did reach out to her a year later to work on her album. It was a good interview.

Anyways I want to say that with each posting and each video, you become better and better in fluency man. Keep up the good work. I am just a plain old graphic designer and illustrator of children's lit, but I soon will begin work on a painting of the two Guitar Gods. I will let you be the first human to take a peek.

    Prince rapidly evolved and disbanded acts. He replaced singers, dancers and band members without a choice to remain. Parallel with his love interests. I read somewhere that he would advance his proteges/ muses careers than when the musical project or endeavor was in the final stage the affair, romantic relationship or fling was over as well. After his death, I gained so much favorable and not so much insight into our still beloved, Prince's life.

Yes they technically did the SotT tour, Lovesexy and the black album, but that’s a mouthful for a band that never had an official name. Cheers!

    I think that's why their relationship was so great together. Cause they wanted to be friend's only and that's how it should be. Cause like my mom said you can't have all the good candy in the store, you gotta leave some for somebody else. But I think Lovesexy would've been a great name for a band. I don't know how that would've fell in line with the Lovesexy album after Sign of the Times album. I think that's why he didn't name that band Lovesexy. Cause he had an album coming out with the same name I might be wrong about this.

    • @PrincesFriend

He uplifted a lot of women in the music business and every body assumes that he was doing them because of his sexual on stage prowess and music. People ASSUME. He lifted up more women in the music business than anyone and he respected them. It's one of the reasons he tried to stay so private! He hated, absolutely hated, that part of Fame!

I believe that the story line, just how Vanity was supposed to be in Purple Rain ☔️ and instead he had to hire Apollonia, Patricia.... In Vanity’s spot. Prince and Apollonian were never involved, but she tries to act like they were... He gave her that name for the size of her chest... Prince usually preferred tighter smaller sized figures woman and he only hired her to play a part... I love how people try to fight with me about this, but it’s true. She was dating David Lee Roth at the time of the movie. And yes people her real name is Patricia.
