Always In The Mood
Shirley Jones
Released during the middle of the eighties, the record utilizes the sleek, synth-heavy production common to R&B of that period. Jones demonstrates her versatility as a performer by shifting between smooth, slow pieces and high-energy dance selections.
This project serves as a clear indicator of how the Philadelphia soul movement adapted to the changing trends of modern funk and pop. It documents the singer fully commanding her own spotlight while maintaining the polish required for the era.
