    He tells a story about performing in the US at the beginning of his career, and Frank Sinatra caught him afterward. Sinatra told him he had a good enough voice, but needed to learn to tone it down and use his microphone to get the volume, because he'd eventually blow out his voice. Jones obviously ignored his advice! LOL! And he never lost his voice, either.

    These days, an audience would start applauding as soon as he hit the chorus, because they're so amazed to hear a singer who can actually sustain a power note without turning it into a 37-note run. But that vocal quality was there with so many singers from the 1950s and '60s. Perhaps one day you'll check out more from the giants of that era - Sinatra, obviously, Sammy Davis Jr., Tony Bennett, and many more.

Alot of his fans will swear he sounds exactly the same as his prime, but I think they're listening with their hearts and not their ears. He's still fantastic, but not quite the same.
