Color Me Gone / Marti Jones
Color Me Gone
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1984 US Original 12" 33 1/3rpm EP. Gold Promo Stamp On Back Cover. Light Corner Wear. “This Six-Song EP Did More Than Just Introduce Future Adult Alternative Goddess Marti Jones To The World; It's Also Good Enough To Make Color Me Gone's Breakup Shortly After Its Release Seem A Bit Disappointing. The Well-Crafted And Finely Produced Jangle Pop Stands Up To What Most Of The Akron Quartet's Peers Were Offering At The Time, With A Little Extra Guitar Muscle And The Group's Ability To Get Credibly Rootsy (The Sweet Country-Soul Of "Hurtin' You," The Harbinger Of Jones' Subsequent Direction) To Further Recommend It. It's Jones Who Makes The Most Difference, Though; In A Genre Where Great Singers Were Almost Nonexistent, Hearing One Slice Through The Ringing Guitars And Harmonies Was Certainly Welcome And Occasionally ("Lose Control," "Hideaway") Thrilling.” Dan LeRoy, All Music Guide.
