Jerry Jones was an American singer who fell in love with Jamaica during what was supposed to be a brief hotel engagement, eventually staying for months and catching the attention of legendary producer Coxsone Dodd. Her recordings at the iconic Studio One became part of reggae history, showcasing her powerful vocals against the backdrop of Jamaica's golden era sound.
There's A Chance For Me / Trying Times features two dancefloor-filling reggae covers originally recorded at Studio One in 1970. Jones transforms Aretha Franklin's "Rocksteady" into a tuff reggae burner complete with blazing trombone, while "Trying Times" delivers a skanking take on Roberta Flack's classic tune penned by Donny Hathaway and Leroy Hutson, making this 7" a must-have for collectors of authentic Studio One rarities.
