Ricky Jones, has a new project in the shape of a 14 track album "Crazy Sexy" released today. It's a solid album and we'll stick our neck out and
state that it's one of the best of the year so far, standing alongside
the highly acclaimed set from Sy Smith.
It's rather churlish attempting to select favourite tracks as we will
all have different tastes, and there are no fillers on this set, but the songs we keep returning to are "Sleeping With The Enemy" and the exquisite, smooth, soulful ballad "Tell Me Baby What's Wrong". Don't jump straight to those tracks though, let the album flow from
start to finish, you won't be disappointed.
Jones was born in Vero Beach, FL, to a preacher father and honed his
voice in the church choir. He was signed to Motown as the lead singer
and songwriter for the trio Yours Truly who released just
one album in 1991 along with a few singles. He provided vocal coaching
for the Backstreet Boys and has worked with Lionel Richie, BabyFace,
Diane Warren and Johnny Gill.
Jones released an eponymous solo album in 1997 and Discogs attributes an earlier one from 1987 titled "Postman" under the alias Shadow.
