The Jones Girls: Keep It Comin' (Philadelphia International)
James Hunter, Record, August 1984
KEEP IT Comin', the Jones Girls' latest album, is black pop in the year 2 A.T. (After Thriller), which means craft and consistency are givens. Still, the record represents light-hearted girl-groupdom at some smooth new peak in Philadelphia. More loose-limbed and spirited than the Pointer Sisters, for example, the three Jones Girls' singing is terribly seductive stuff — when they harmonize they can, seemingly at will, energize your heart or take bits of it apart.
