Over his thirty plus years of recording, has rarely been included in the short list of important Soul vocalists. While that may be attributable to a perceived lack of distinctiveness and consistency in the material he's covered over his career, he and his catalog of material have generally been underrated, and it is only in the latter stages of his career that he has begun to receive proper credit as a fine Soul singer. Like great Soul artists from Sam Cooke to Aretha Franklin, Glenn Jones' singing origins are in the Church. Jones spent most of his teen and early adult years singing Gospel in various groups, most notably the Modulations. He then worked with many of the Gospel greats of the 70s, including Rev. James Cleveland and the Mighty Clouds of Joy, and appeared to have a bright future in the Gospel world. In the late 70s, Jones came to the attention of R&B producer Norman Connors, who helped start the careers of so many Soul vocalists such as and . Connors recruited Jones to sing on his 1980 LP, Take It To the Limit, and to pursue a career in secular R&B. For more information about Glenn Jones, visit: www.GlennJones.com.
