Tamiko Jones
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, December 1975
IT'S AMAZING how many of today's super-soulstars can be traced back to the Ric Tic-Golden World family for their very first step into showbiz. The list is endless and, in some instances, quite surprising Right now, though, our attention is focused on the stunningly attractive Tamiko Jones, whose re-cut of her original Golden World classic, 'I'm Spellbound'. has just been released to coincide with her British concert debut at Hammersmith Odeon, on which she will be supported by Ultra Funk and the full Armada Orchestra.
