Experience the soulful magic of two incredible talents with The Ruby Turner EP, a standout release from 1985 on the prestigious Jive Records. This EP highlights the breathtaking vocal power of the UK’s soul queen, Ruby Turner, paired with the brilliant musicianship and smooth vocals of Jonathan Butler. Together, they create a sophisticated blend of contemporary soul and R&B that signaled Turner’s emergence as a major solo artist.

The centerpiece of this release is the hit collaboration "If You're Ready (Come Go With Me)," a soulful and uplifting cover of the Staple Singers’ classic. The chemistry between Turner’s gospel-rooted strength and Butler’s melodic guitar work and silky voice is undeniable. This EP captures the transition from the early 80s groove into the polished "Sophisti-soul" sound that would dominate the mid-decade charts.
