Tuesday 02.16.10: Spaceland Productions & LA Weekly present An Evening with RICKIE LEE JONES @ Vista Theatre

Rickie Lee Jones || Listen

There is only one Rickie Lee Jones and you can experience her unique mixture of R&B, jazz, soul and pop in February. That is, if your town is lucky enough to be on the routing sheet.

Has it really been more than thirty years since Jones recorded “Chuck E.’s In Love?” As the story goes, Jones was with Tom Waits while the gravel-voiced singer spoke on the phone with friend and musician Chuck E. Weiss.

After ending the call, Jones supposedly asked Waits about the conversation, and he replied, “Chuck E.’s in love,” thereby giving her the song title that would eventually become her signature tune and help launch her career.

Jones has a short tour beginning Feb. 13 in Sparks, Nev., at John Ascuaga’s Nugget. Valentine’s Day has her in Santa Cruz at the Rio Theater and she appears in Los Angeles at the Vista Theatre Feb. 16. – Pollstar
