Mari Jones made her first recordings for Aladdin in late 1950 backed by Johnny Moore's Three Blazers in a session that yielded two sides with two others held back. In 1953 she recorded six more sides for Modern and two more for Recorded in Hollywood the next year still in the company of Moore & his group. Her last recordings under her name were waxed sometime later in the 50's or the early 60's backed by an unknown group that were released on the Tampa & Jet labels. Outside of her own releases, she also appeared as a vocalist on records by Johnny Moore, and by Floyd Dixon.

Mari Jones - Her first outing is as part of Johnny Moore's Three Blazers for the Aladdin label in March of 1951 on #3082 - "Unlucky Girl" / "Four Years". This was followed by #3075 - "Real Lovin' Mama". A year later she was featured vocalist on #3139 "How Could You Be So Mean" and "Mean Papa Blues" with the Three Blazers, and #3166 - "Broken Hearted Trouble". Later that year she moved with the small combo to crosstown rival Modern Records for #881 - "My Song" and "Gee It's Rough" and #888 - "Lonesome Train" and "Johnny Johnny Johnny". In March of 1953 Mari and The Three Blazers did one record for the Rhythm & Blues label #100 - "Too Bad" and "I Don't Know, Yes I Know" a duet with Lex Nelson. This was followed by two releases for Recorded In Hollywood : #409 - "There's No Greater Love" / "Driftin' Blues" and #425 - "Keep Cool" and "Blues In My Heart" as by Mauri Jones. In August Modern released a record from a year old session on #911 - "In The Home" / "Old Worries". In October the whole aggregation went on an extensive tour of Texas and the Southwest - Charles Brown, Mari Jones, and Johnny Moore's Three Blazers. Mari disappeared during the rock 'n' roll explosion in the mid fifties, but in the summer of 1956 a record surfaced on Tampa #117 - "Riba Daba Doo" and "Don't Cry" by Mari Jones.

Hallo,

die 1952er Aufnahme von Johnny Moore's Three Blazers "Johnny Johnny" (Vocal Mari Jones) auf MODERN 888 (B-Seite "Lonesome Train") verdient Beachtung. Fünf Jahre nach ihrem Erscheinen titelte ein gewisser Little Richard "Jenny Jenny". Eine Plagiatsaffäre wurde das nicht, hätte es aber alle mal verdient. Mein Tipp: unbedingt anhören und vergleichen.

Gruß Ralf
