(1973)"Come Go With Me" is a studio album released by
Gloria Jones in 1966. The album is available in mono and stereo versions. "The New 'Heartbeat' Sound That Never Quits".Here is the description written on the back of the album:
"Uptown...downtown...cross-town; the great sound that grabs you by the ears and won't let you go is the new "living sound," the thumping "Hearbeat" sound of Gloria Jones. And in COME GO WITH ME, Gloria's smashing LP debut album, blood pressures and pulse rates go soaring to ecstatic heights. For here's a music that knows no limits, an instrumental rhythm and vocal melody that overflows with emotional soul and artistic inspiration.
When did it all begin?... only twenty years ago! Where did it all begin?... in Cincinnati, Ohio! How did it all begin?... that's a longer story. As is the case with so many of today's top recording stars, gospel singing constituted much of Gloria's training experience. And with a church choir as close at hand as her father Rev. Jones' church, Gloria was never left wanting for a testing ground in which to try out the hundreds of vocal styles and moods that kept whirling around in her pretty head and creative mind. Well, in brief, the Jones talent to render a song consistently spectacular grew until, on a great day in 1965, a close friend introduced her to record producer Ed Cobb. It just so happens that producer Cobb had recently composed a song that cried out for just the right vocal blend of gospel feeling and "top 40" drive. Within days, Gloria and "Heartbeat (Parts 1 & 2)" were on record... and how!
Today Miss Gloria Jones is one of the nation's most talked-about newcomers. But with such follow-ups as "Finders Keepers" and the frenzied "Run One Flight Of Stairs" (both are heard in this album sensation), it won't be long before Jones-sty;e excitement is the sure-fire criterion by which all hit sounds and hit makers are judged."
It is from this period with Ed Cobb that also produced "
Tainted Love " and "My Bad Boy's Coming Home." Both songs were later given an album release on 1982's "Reunited", once again with Ed Cobb producing. This album has yet to be given an official CD release.Track listing
