Featured in TIR Episode 330: R&B singer Shirley Jones, who along with sisters Brenda and Valorie comprised the fabulous Jones Girls. Beginning in 1979, the trio recorded three straight albums that rose to the R&B Top 25 and sent five songs into the Top 25. Those included “You Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else,” “I Just Love the Man” and “Nights Over Egypt.”

The Jones Girls also performed and recorded with Lou Rawls, Teddy Pendergrass, Aretha, Linda Clifford and Diana Ross. Striking out on her own in 1986, Shirley’s solo debut, Always in the Mood, reached No. 8 on the R&B albums chart and included the No. 1 ballad hit, “Do You Get Enough Love.” Since then she has continued to tour and release new music, upholding the Jones Girls’ wonderful legacy.

To that end, her new album, Reflections: In Loving Memory, commemorates the 45th anniversary of the sisters’ debut album.
