Celebrating Motown Great, Uriel Jones (1934-2009)


Discover the classic work of one of Motown's influential performers, drummer Uriel Jones, who passed away today at the age of 74. The one of a kind, funky drumbeat of Jones can be heard on the Marvin Gaye hit "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," and Stevie Wonder’s "For Once In My Life." In addition to Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, Jones also collaborated with music legends Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson. No music library is complete without the incomparable contributions of Uriel Jones, and other Motown artists, like Jackson 5, Lionel Richie, DeBarge, Jr. Walker, Rick James, The Marvelettes, The Temptations and The Supremes. Check out the collections of these groundbreaking artists today at Thumbplay!
