On the subject of her date / place of birth, the Allmusic website here - [1] has her details as 12 September 1938, Longview, Texas. Indeed, this is not the only source for these particulars. They vary in almost every respect to the present Wiki quoted information as 19 October 1945, Cincinnati, Ohio. Seven years is a long time. Is anyone able to specifically pin this one down ?! Sources and citeable references please - not "I think" etc. Thank you, Derek R Bullamore (talk) 21:39, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
I'm Gloria's assistant, and her birthday is 19th October 1945. The other birthday is for another singer with the same name. Automaticshoes (talk) 01:11, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
From the article as it stands:
Is she in Sierra Leona, or New Salem, or both? This is rather bewildering as it stands. ElijahOmega (talk) 18:08, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
To me that sounds like she picked the genre "Northern Soul" to record, whereas my understanding is that Northern Soul is a term applied to songs later... is there a better way to word that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.35.135.136 (talk) 03:33, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
The links in this article are over the top. Europe, London, UK, San Francisco, films.

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 08:27, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
If she was born 1945-10-19 then as of today she should be 71 not 69. I've tried fixing it but it refuses to correct itself. Can anyone please sort this out? 2.29.250.107 (talk) 09:33, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
Why does the article make repeated references to Marc Bolan's lacklustre cover of Tainted Love? Is it because Gloria Jones is famous only for being a footnote in the career of a more famous man? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.185.81 (talk) 16:50, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
Is this the Gloria Jones who was in the Jerry Garcia Band from 1984 to 1995? The article sure doesn't say anything about that, so maybe that was a different person. I tried looking this up on Allmusic, with mixed results. In the credits for this Gloria Jones, here, one Jerry Garcia Band album is listed, they may be getting mixed up -- for a different Gloria Jones, here, they list another Garcia Band album. Can anyone provide a definitive answer? — Mudwater (Talk) 18:30, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
The Gloria Jones who was in the Jerry Garcia Band died on February 1, 2019.[1][2][3] Again, this article is about a different singer named Gloria Jones. There have been several recent edits on this article by people who, naturally enough, are thinking that they are the same person.

It says she died in 2019 in the info box. If this person is dead then it should be stated at the start of the article? Scooch Cubing (talk) 11:59, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
