Norma Jean Wright: Norma Jean
Daryl Easlea, Demon Records, July 2011
NORMA JEAN WRIGHT'S sole album on Bearsville, released in 1978, is something of a curio, and is notable for the fact it was the first outside production by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, for what, at that point had yet to become known as the CHIC Organization Ltd.
