Once touted as the natural heir to Joni Mitchell, singer/songwriter Rickie Lee Jones proven no less idiosyncratic or erratic; care Mitchell, Jones experienced meaning commercial success at the first of her career, but a unsatisfied creative spirit -- combined with a stubborn refusal to fit comfortably into whatsoever one musical recess -- sealed her ultimate fate as that of a highly regarded cult heroine.


Jones was innate on November 8, 1954, in Chicago, but the volatile relationship between her mother and father resulted in an bringing up that light-emitting diode her everywhere from Phoenix, AZ, to Olympia, WA, where an expulsion all over her school calling. As a teenager, Jones began crapulence heavily, and finally she left home and began drifting up and down the West Coast before subsiding in Los Angeles in the mid-'70s. There she worked a series of waitressing jobs spell at times acting in area clubs, where she panax quinquefolius and honed her unique, Beat-influenced spoken give-and-take monologues. She as well began a relationship with mate boho Tom Waits.


Her first base measure of success was as a songster; after her friend Ivan Ulz panax quinquefolius Jones' composition "Easy Money" over the phone to Lowell George, the ex-Little Feat frontman included it on his album Thanks I'll Eat It Here. Then in 1978 Jones' four-song demonstration came to the attention of Warner Brothers executive Lenny Waronker, world Health Organization enlisted Russ Titleman to co-produce her self-titled 1979 debut LP. Spurred by the success of the jazz-flavored hit unmarried "Chuck E's in Love," Rickie Lee Jones became a smash both commercially and critically, earning praise for Jones' elastic vocals, pictorial pun, and unequaled fusion of folk, idle words, and R&B.


With 1981's follow-up, Pirates, she gave early notice that her music would not sit still; employing yearner and more composite song structures, her lyrics tackled themes of organic evolution, change, and death. Two geezerhood after, she returned with Girl at Her Volcano, an EP collection of live jazz standards and studio apartment outtakes; with 1984's The Magazine, she made another leftfield turn, teaming with composer James Newton Howard for her slickest, most synth-driven outing to date.


Problems with alcoholic beverage, business difficulties, and the birth of a girl effectively sidelined Jones for a good deal of the decennary; she did not resurface until 1989's sterling Fast Cowboys, produced by Steely Dan's Walter Becker and recorded with the assistance of the fantastic Scottish trio the Blue Nile. Don Was took over the yield reins for 1991's Pop Pop, on which Jones covered ballads ranging in origination from Tin Pan Alley to the Haight-Ashbury spell backed by jazz players including Charlie Haden and Joe Henderson. After 1993's Traffic From Paradise, she embarked on an acoustic tour; Naked Songs, a document of those unplugged shows, followed in 1995. Ghostyhead was released in 1997 and the standards record book It's Like This appeared trey old age later.


She returned to original material in 2003 with The Evening of My Best Day, an album that verbalized her wrath with contemporary American politics. During the summer of 2005, Rhino released the three-CD anthology Duchess of Coolsville. Two geezerhood after, The Sermon on Exposition Boulevard, a arresting compendium of songs based on friend Lee Cantelon's 1997 good Book The Words, came proscribed.
