Joe Jones (1926 – 2005) was born in New Orleans. He was an R&B singer, songwriter and arranger, and is often cited as having discovered the Dixie Cups, a pop girl group best known for the 1964 hit “Chapel of Love.”
“You Talk Too Much” was released by Joe Jones & His Orchestra on the Roulette label and reached No. 3 on the pop charts in 1960. The song was written by Reginald Hall, Fats Domino‘s brother-in-law, but Domino decided not to record it.
“You Talk Too Much” was the high point of Jones’ career – a nice high point.
