KARIN JONES – UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LOVE

Description

Emphatic in its emphasis on the intoxicating power of love, ‘Under The Influence Of Love’ is the debut album by Karin Jones, a Canadian soul singer who shared her sonic vision with producer Willi Morrison and arranger Dunn Pearson. The LP was made far earlier than its release date, since it had to be shelved due to label issues – but it endured the test of time and in 1982, Jim Tyrrell of Handshake Records discovered Jones’ demo tape and signed the album. Jones’ disco-funk vision is heavily stooped in neat production tricks and audiophile’s choices; her voice is quiet in the mix on street soul beauties like ‘Ready, Ready Love’, but it cuts like a knife.
