Helen Bruner and Terry Jones are not only duo performers they are also song writers and producers. Terry Jones has worked with Celine Dion and Gloria Estefan as well as providing vocals for the likes of Redman. Bruner has achieved success a solo artist. Her album Have You heard About It reached No.1 on the Billboard charts. In 2012 their song Get To Know Me walked away with best song at the Grammy's. The duo also own Phil'erzy production company. Terry Jones, by the way, is the daughter of Linda Jones ("The Empress of Soul") so Soul music runs in the blood. Enough about the bio and more about the music.
Today's feature track is Better and is taken from their Hollyhood (2010) album. It's an absolute storming track guaranteed to get the dance floor filled. OK Mr. DJ, if you aren't spinning this...Why not? Take a listen and be impressed by them.
Helen Bruner & Terry Jones - Better (2010)
I'm tempted to think of them as the 21st Century female version of Sam & Dave or James & Bobby Purify but frankly they are uniquely themselves as one of the most outstanding female Soul duos of all time. If you don't already own their brilliant Hollyhood album then it has to find it's way into your collection before the last CD copies vanish. Alternatively you can get the downloads but you know what I think of those. If they're not lossless quality like FLAC then you really are not getting the best audio quality.
Some CD copies still available from the usual sources but don't leave it until later. When they're gone, they gone!
