Description
Off the map RARE!!! Cleveland female singer who was close friends with Kim Tolliver some of KIm's vocal presence carried over into Jerry's work.
Here she is on a tiny but famed branch of BRA Records of Miami, a label that provided the Soul / Jamaican collector / DJ with a few high profile rarities, by Byron Lee, Blues Busters etc.
The PAL arm pressed three Jerry Jones singles all them thumping horn driven Northern Soul / R&B "Ghosts" in their own right.
002 Monkey On Your Back
901 I'm a Slave
902 You L-I-E-D / Tired of Crying
With "I'm a Slave" being the most elusive and consequently the most wanted, and many consider her/his finest. The vocal capturing your ear from the first note. Jerry Jones (like Jackie Shane) earned a creditable living as a black female/male impersonator on the 60s Miami area club circuit.
Personally I really like her vocal style, especially as the tone can change between each recording session.But always muscular and in tune.
"I'm a Slave" is a gritty uncompromising display, of rare Northern Soul R&B, thumper that has steadily grown in demand and value through the decades today it is extremely wanted and super-elusive.
Tough to find in even playable condition, this copy is fine clean copy (listen)
