I LOVE THIS CD IS THE BEST SINGING IN THE WORLD THE EMOTIONS PLEASE TAKE A BACK SEAT TO THE JONES GIRLS I VE SEEM THE LIVE IN CONCERT WITH DIANA ROSS AND THEY STOLE THE SHOW .IF YOU WANT TO FEEL LIKE YOU DIE AND GONE TO HEAVEN ' THEN BUY THIS CD EVERY SONG IS BREATHTAKING TRUST ME. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY

This album is a true masterpiece by one of the most talented girl groups of the 20th century. Shirley, Valerie and Brenda Jones sing their sweet harmonies over some of the funkiest and sexiest tracks that ever were released from the Philly International camp. From the opening track "(I Found) That Man Of Mine" to the smooth "Nights Over Egypt" the Jones Girls deliver a sound that many girl groups of the 90s couldn't touch.

I highly reccommend this album along with thier first two, "The Jones Girls" and "At Peace With Woman." One listen and you will realize how underrated this group has been over the past 20 years.

They did it again. They came out with two of the best albums that r&b would ever have. "Get As Much Love As You Can" is a beautiful affair of vocals, instrumentation and lovely arrangements. Every track is beautiful.My Faves are "Love Don't Ever Say Goodbye", "Nights Over Egypt" and the title track. "Keep It Comin'" is so good too! The title track with the three screaming at their peak sets my skin to goosepimply ecstacy. The other tracks I love is "Why You Wanna Do That To Me?", "Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah", "Won't Let You Take It Back" and "Right Stuff." Get this! U Won't Be Disappointed! Trust me!

"The air is soft and the nights are warm...","Nights Over Egypt" keeps it spellbound for a set of listener hearing "Get As Much Love As You Can/Keep It Comin'" [Import] doulbe-album CD(Diablo Records UK) re-issue,buying it before dark."Get As Much Love As You Can"(1982 LP) has "Nights Over Egypt"(1981 single) included.

The Jones Girls were most definitely the 1980s' best female vocal group as evidenced by such tracks as "Get As Much Love As You Can", "Nights Over Egypt", "Love Don't Ever Say Goodbye", "Ah Ah, Ah Ah", "Keep It Coming" and "You Can't Have My Love". Had they been better promoted and had circumstances been different during the first half of the 1980s, The Jones Girls just might have become the Supremes of the 1980s.

Strong vocals and production from the stable of Gamble & Huff!!!!
These sisters are truly underrated! and these two lp's on 1 cd are a great start to hear these wonderful voices! These lp's should've been bigger sellers!! Great songs!!!

The Jones Girls will always be a wonderful reminder of the beauty and style of the R & B/ Soul "Girl Groups." Music now seems to have to have a combination of "ripped-off" tracks or "sampling," injected rap, or way off videos to be popular. The Jones Girls just provided good music. Their talent was not derivative. They are actually closer to Sister Sledge in style and abilities. My favorites are "Nights Over Egypt" and "Let's Be Friends First..." But I sure hope they don't come out with a new version with a rap by "Left-Eye" or a Brandy solo.
