The Jones Girls - Children of the Night (Official Soul Train Video)

[@bilcarpenter1591]

I wish we could go back to that time when they were all still here and making that beautiful music!

[@RodneyPlayer-q8c]

@bilcarpenter1591 I wish I had a time machine I would never leave the 80's. Saw the Jones girls in 81 and it was everything. I had chills the entire time especially when they would harmonize because it was other worldly. Imo they are the greatest girl group of all time.❤

[@HanifBarnwell]

As the curtain closes on my life, I can’t help but marvel at the glorious age I lived through; keep sharing more of these classics and continue preserving our history.

[@greatmusicneverdies6253]

Poor kids today have no idea of what they missed. This music served as not only inspiration, but as a sort of role model...

[@HanifBarnwell]

@@greatmusicneverdies6253 agreed.

[@rodneyplayer5785]

I listen to these girls more now than I did back in the 80's. I think as a kid back then I didn't really realize we had it so good music wise. When I saw The Jones Girls in concert I was mesmerized. I didn't want them to stop. They're definitely my favorite female group of all time. Keep it coming Shirley. We miss Brenda and Valerie ❤️🙏

[@glencro]

Wasn’t it a glorious age

[@HanifBarnwell]

@@glencro yes, yes we had it good.

[@MrIrrepressible]

Have mercy, 70s black women are so beautiful

[@RodneyPlayer-q8c]

This girl group is the GOAT. There will never ever be another group like this one. They are iconic and American Treasures.

[@SavāgeBückeṭ]

The way these sisters harmonize is unreal. We need to bring back real musical teachings and bring back real singing!

[@kishiagoins2541]

Can we please talk about those outfits. These ladies are clean I mean dressed to the nines. Glamorous, beautiful and talented. Listen to those vocals. Classy and elegant ❤❤❤. They don’t make them like this anymore.❤❤❤❤

[@kwameaboagye121]

The Jones Girls are so beautiful. The late Brother Don Cornelius even agrees that our queens are so beautiful. Val and Brenda will be so missed but Shirley is still around. Big up to you Brother Ken Gamble and Brother Leon Huff.

[@myratanksley]

Well the Bible says the most beautiful of women is black. Read the Song of Solomon!

[@williamsmith6872]

Hearing this outrageously beautiful song from my wonderful childhood. I gotta thank the father above for keeping me this long and having the best time of my life. Thank you, for letting me meet some of the most amazing people who gave me indelible memories of yesterday❤

[@anthonymeans7439]

The Jones Girls were so talented Their harmonies were on point

[@KwameAboagye-fh7gl]

For me, the late Sister Brenda Jones is the sexiest queen of our queen R&B group, the Jones Girls. Ase, Sister Brenda Jones.

[@nikkithomasTV]

She was strikingly gorgeous

[@katyarnold6757]

Such classy, talented, and beautiful women. They didn't need any props or dress provocative to sing. The Jones Girls will always be a class act. RIP Brenda and RIP Valorie Jones.

Ok, so this is the track Tupac used for his song "closest road dog", but the Jones Girls are iconic, beautiful, and unforgettable.

[@PRESSHAM7883]

I’m so blessed and thankful for being a 70’s baby! The natural beauty and talent from the 70’s and 80’s were impeccable!! I will forever cherish those days and the music we were blessed with!! 👍🏽❤️🙏🏽

[@Pookie2419]

Jeez, their voices as a trio was mesmerizing

[@Fudge_Fantasy]

Just like the Jackson 5....their sisters it's almost like cheating but you can't take away from em tho.

[@batgirlp5561]

How do these ladies sound like a whole choir? ❤Just beautiful😊

[@isaiahthompson2065]

THAT ALBUM WAS AWESOME ! "AT PEACE WITH WOMAN !"

[@kwabenarasuli8108]

Yep! Dance Turned Into Romance was funky too

[@davidglica-hernandez908]

Definitely on underrated group

[@neonh161]

I'm so jealous of these times, even though I lived through this magnificent period; the thing is that I want it all to come back again.. But thankfully we still have the music of that time, the memories and these video recordings to keep us going..

[@SS-ii6nz]

Their version of this song is beautiful from The Jones Girls.They have Great voices as great as the legendary Stylistics. Soul Music is timeless and fantastic. ❤❤❤

[@avonee1976]

This is a COLD record for skating backwards! I loved it the first time I ever heard it! In a 70s baby, 80s child, I love old school music!

[@Frederm]

The ladies fashion was amazing. I love the white dresses

[@quitinamoore7943]

There Will Never Be Anyone Else Like These Beautiful Voices. I Always Loved Their Music❤❤❤

[@briceleste100]

I’m gonna cry. This song literally had me stuck when I first heard it. I’m only 28 so I can only have so much appreciation for their songs but when I say their music was and still is amazing. You’re gonna get about 1000 views from me alone just cause I’m gonna be rewatching this 😂🫣

[@reneeb.dandridge6522]

I cant help but love this song, not so much the lyrics but the melody and those angelic voices! I miss this era so much!

[@FatherAndTeacherTV]

I'm loving the harmony! (Need a full documentary on this legendary record label.)

Beautiful, classy and timeless music 💫🎶. Pure music for your soul.

[@tedjemison2699]

Loved this group since the seventies

[@anthonysoley7121]

The Jones Girls Children of the night is a classic r&b song on Soul Train.

[@jojodancer0072]

Yes, the original was recorded by “The Stylistics”. Both groups did a wonderful job in their own style. The stylistics did it 1st in the 70’s & the Jones Girls re-recorded it in the 80’s. Both groups were produced by Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff of Philadelphia international records.

[@jonsumisu9016]

At that time The Stylistics were produced by Thom Bell for Avco records. Gamble & Huff did produce an album for them, but it was much later.@@jojodancer0072

[@robertspiegel9215]

A shame this wasn't available in time for the Unsung documentary on the Jones Girls. Seems so little footage is available on them.

[@TheRozberry]

I never knew they did a version of this song! Love The Jones Girls!

[@weslleyfrancisco8616]

Glorious harmonies. They blend so well ❤

[@luvrumcake]

We as a people certainly made our mark on this industry...no other culture/race has surpassed us. I now realize why the motion picture industry kept us from acting.

[@seanmcmillan2134]

RIP Valerie and Brenda Jones

[@chrisalexander2889]

Much respect for these beautiful sisters Detroit's own Jones Family......

[@rodneyplayer5785]

The Jones Girls are extraordinary singers. Saw them live and I was amazed how they're harmonies were so angelic like. They are my favorite girl group of all time.

[@TheSecurityCamChannel]

Never knew they covered this song. The Stylistics original version is an overlooked classic but this is nice too.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

Russell was the only Stylistic to sing on the songs. The rest of them did not sing on the first three albums that Thom Bell produced.

[@TheSecurityCamChannel]

@@jaylene.turner6524 Yeah. I know.

[@seanmcmillan2134]

I like this and the original version done by the stylistics.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

Russell Thompkins was the only Stylistic to actually sing on the records. Producer Thom Bell hated the other Stylistics’ voices. So the actual background singers on all of the first three albums that Thom Bell produced were: Carl Helm, Bunny Sigler, Kenny Gamble, Phil Hurtt, and Thom Bell himself. Additional background vocals were done by Linda Creed, Barbara Ingram,Carla Benson,and Yvette Benton. Russell also did some background vocals as well.

@@jaylene.turner6524 Wow, never knew that. I had a co- worker tell me that he heard the Stylistics and the background singers live and they never sounded that good. Russell always carried them. I guess it now makes sense…great info you shared.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

@@curtmagee You’re welcome. Russell talked about this in several interviews that you can find like on the Tom Meros show and “the Curtain Call”.

[@riorich]

@@jaylene.turner6524 Not exactly. On the third album, Airrion Love opened with; "You make me feel brand new". Tommy also did the same with the Delfonics background album recorded at Cameo-Parkway future site of Philly Intl. 309 South Broad, before Sigma was opened. Once Sigma opened you can really hear Bell, Sigler etc., on Thom Bell produced Delfonic songs. Children of the night, by the Stylistics may be my favorite Philly song because of the instrumental part.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

@@riorich Yes. Airron only sang on that and the opening harmony part on “You Are Everything” as Russell said in an interview. He didn’t sing on anything else after that.

The men in the industry wouldn't even let women who look like this in the door right now. A certain look was pushed out. Then they want to turn around and blame women. The music suffers because of the wrong priorities.
