Thelma Jones (1978)

thelmajones
Thelma Jones’ first brilliant album, released on Columbia in 1978, produced by Bert DeCoteaux with the addition of the Brad Shapiro-produced classic “Salty Tears.” Thelma’s soulful vocals are incredible — very much in a traditional R&B mode; includes the first-ever U.S. liner notes by David Nathan. Two bonus cuts on this CD debut of this amazing album.
