Thelma Huston

Motown's "The Best of Thelma Houston" covers her late-'70s/early-'80s output for the label, including her hit cover of "Don't Leave Me This Way." A few other covers, including "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and "Me and Bobby McGee," hint at Houston's range as an interpreter; originals like "If It's the Last Thing I Do," "I Want to Go Back There Again," and "Stealin' in the Name of the Lord" show her finesse with lush ballads, quintessential Motown, and gospel-inflected pop, respectively. Along with "Don't Leave Me This Way," tracks such as "Saturday Night, Sunday Morning," "Love Machine," and "I'm Here Again" reflect Houston's sophisticated but fiery take on disco. While the Spectrum collection has a slightly grittier edge to it, this compilation does a fine job of showing the breadth and depth of her Motown work.

"Thelma Houston" is the 2nd album by American Soul and R&B singer Thelma Houston, recorded in 1972. The album includes the single, "Me and Bobby McGee". This is her first album recorded with Motown Records under the Mowest label. The album was arranged by Artie Butler, Michael Omartian, Gene Page, James Anthony Carmichael and John Myles. Two versions of the album were issued, a ten track version in the US in 1972 and a fourteen track version in the UK and Germany in 1973. The album was later reissued on CD in an expanded edition by Soulmusic Records in 2012.

Any Way You Like It is the third album by singer Thelma Houston, and her second for the Motown family of labels. This album was a huge success due to the single "Don't Leave Me This Way", her rendition of the Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes hit song. "If It's The Last Thing I Do" also became a hit from Any Way You Like It and the rest of the album holds up quite nicely. This CD was released on 27 March, 1990.

The best of two albums Thelma Houston and Jerry Butler made during Houston's '70s stay at Motown. The pair were slick, smooth, and soulful, with Houston reigning in her gospel excesses and Butler finding a way to mesh his mellow style with her heated delivery.

Iconic Gamilaraay artist Thelma Plum announces her highly awaited sophomore album I’m Sorry, Now Say It Back and shares the third taste with new single “Freckles”, following recent releases “Nobody’s Baby” and “We Don’t Talk About It”.

Aside from her 2006 album, Law of Old, this 21-track compilation contains virtually everything Thelma Jones recorded as a solo artist, including 1967-1968 singles for the Barry label; all the tracks from her 1978 Columbia LP; and a couple non-LP Columbia cuts from the same era. Jones is most known for issuing the original version of "The House That Jack Built" (included here), covered for a hit by Aretha Franklin, who frankly gave it a superior, more memorable interpretation. While this anthology shows Jones to be a solid soul vocalist, that's bound to remain the footnote for which she's known. The late-'60s Barry sides are sturdy soul with stirring vocals and a dash of orchestrated pop, but more respectable than outstanding. The final dozen tracks are all from the Columbia era, and such is their difference from the Barry material that they could almost be the work of a different artist. That's understandable, as about a decade had passed in the meantime and trends in soul music had been totally overhauled. It still makes for an incongruous juxtaposition, the production getting slicker in accordance with the musical changes of the era, Jones' vocals and the material again being more competent than noteworthy. For those who want all of Jones' 1960s and 1970s recordings in one place, however, this is almost one-stop shopping – "almost" because one of her Barry singles, "Souvenirs of a Heartbreak" and "I Won't Give Up My Man," is represented by alternate takes of the songs.

The album "Thelma Jones" was released in 1978 and featured the single alongside "I Can Dream" written by Leon Ware, "Lonely Enough To Try Anything", penned by Sam Dees and the popular rare groove tune "How Long", written by Len Ron Hanks and Zane Grey.

"A Woman's Touch" is the seventeenth studio album by singer and songwriter, Thelma Houston. "A Woman's Touch" is an album that consists of her renditions of vintage R&B and Pop songs by male singers such as Luther Vandross, Glen Campbell, Marvin Gaye and Sting. The lead single from the album is "Brand New Day."

I've Got The Music In Me was an album by singer Thelma Houston and a band from the Sheffield Lab label, who called themselves Pressure Cooker. Originally released in 1975, this CD was released in 1989.
