It has been so hard to find any live performances of The Jones Girls in concert but I've finally ran across this gem. The quality isn't the best but the ladies sound great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brl2JjlA6Zg

Thanks for posting this, glen...Been waiting for a long time to see live footage of them...
Oh wow....thanks so much, glen.
Grand Merci and greetings from Brussels :)
Glen, thanks much for finding this video. I also have never seen them in action and I remember someone here asking if there was anything out there. It might have been you [[lol). Do you know the date of this concert? Hopefully, more videos of them might see the light of day.
This concert is from 1983. There have been several people asking about live footage from the sisters including myself. It's been so hard to find anything on them over the years. Thankfully one of their sons posted this.Quote:

I remember seeing the Jones Girls when they touring with the AN EVENING WITH DIANA ROSS presentation. Throughout the show they were seated on 18-foot ladders. Then at the end, Diana called them down to center stage so that they could perform IF I EVER LOSE THIS HEAVEN.Quote:
