Saturday Soul: Gloria Jones, "Heartbeat"

Saturday Soul: Gloria Jones, Heartbeat

Gloria Jones never reached the solo success of contemporaries Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin and Tina Turner but she ripped through songs like "Heartbeat" with a throaty vigor, that was one part gospel and another part pure unadulterated soul.

Her two landmark musical achievements were the NBA equivalent of an "alley-oop:" She co-wrote Gladys Knight and The Pips' Grammy-nominated, "If I Were Your Woman;" and her 1964 original recording of "Tainted Love" would later inspire Soft Cell's 1981 cover and subsequent uber international hit.

Here's former Gospel singer turned "Northern Soul" Queen Gloria Jones performing "Hearbeat" circa 1965.



Watch Jones take 'em to church!

I love watching this kind of stuff from the 60s. She looks like she really wanted to start dancing. What a soulful singer.

Gloria's solo album 'Share My Love' originally released by Motown in 1973, will be getting it's first CD release in March 2009. Her myspace is www.myspace.com/thegloriajones

Hey there,
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Great Blog!! I personally loved your
pics .... Must admit you have a great sense of style. Keep up the good
work.I have enjoyed reading your blog and thought of dropping in a word …
PS: I have initiated an idea to create a fashion and style blogroll where
bloggers from the jewelry, fashion, style and beauty could participate.
All you need to do is to add my blog link to your blog and i'll do the
same.
That way, we could have a mutual partnership and we could refer visitors to
each other's blog.
Please let me know if you would be interested.

Thanks!

Loved GLoria then, and even now! Especially loved the through back to that time. Yes!

Dave Heasman said...

It's a meme that "Tainted Love" came out in 1964. But it was written for the Standells who rejected it. Jones recorded it in 1968.

In a world where every single company task involves the use of a computer, not having proper IT maintenance services could spell death for your company. You may think that the bundled IT and networking service provided by these IT companies cost a lot. However, if you look at some of the possible scenarios you might encounter because of the absence of IT specialists, you will soon find yourself changing your opinion about these IT maintenance companies.

Thanks for the ideas you share through this website. In addition, many young women exactly who become pregnant tend not to even make an effort to get health insurance because they dread they probably would not qualify. Although many states right now require that insurers give coverage no matter what about the pre-existing conditions. Prices on all these guaranteed options are usually larger, but when considering the high cost of medical care it may be the safer route to take to protect your current financial future.Best advertising Agency in the world | top advertising agencies in pakistan | Marketing Agency
