Favorite JJ song(s): The great ballads plus!!!
I have been a Jack Jones fan since 1964, possessing a wealth of his timeless recordings. I have seen almost every concert in the U.k. and itend to see him in Buxton. I presented Mrs Jones with a couple of albums containing new songs at the Sage last year knowing Jack is always looking for new material. What ever the maestro sings is great to me though I prefer the slower big ballads where he really lets it go i.e. From a Distance, Music of the Night, Summertime etc. plus of course his very own classics. It is a joke that this year is his farewell Event, as I genuinely feel he has so much to offer the next generation. If I may be so bold, all he needs is a truly great song (easier said than done I know.) Jack dont call it a day please. See you at Buxton.

Favorite JJ song(s): Once in a while,Swing version of Love Boat
The oher favorite performers: Lezlie Anders,Buddy Greco,ANDY& TONY
The BEST timeI saw Jack Jones live was about 5 years ago when he celebrated
50 years in showbiz and was accompanied by the very talented comedian/impres-
sionist Bob Anderson. At that time Jack was relaxed self assured and sang the
best set of songs ever put together for him- all old favourites he was comfortable
with and we, the audience, adored them and him ! I do hope this coming May/
2013 we get something similar and NOT a lot of self indulgant songs Jack
somtimes dishes up. I wish JACK JONES all the best !

Favorite JJ song(s): SHE & As Long As She Needs Me.
The oher favorite performers: Howard Keel, Anthony Newley, Paul Anka, Tom Jones
Tel. 1-561-347-6388 ....the OTHER IRENE. You told me your Mom is Irene too. December 1964, I was vacationing at the Deauville Hotel, Miami and you
were performing for the FOOTLIGHTERS CONVENTION with Sammy Davis
Jr., Allan Sherman, et.al. You came out from a curtain, into Lobby, belting out the song from Oliver called...\"As long as She Needs Me\" and I was hooked
from that moment on. You wore a lemon yellow shirt...a fabulous dresser,
great looks, charm, personality etc. I\'ve been a fan for all these years. We
met when the rat pack had drinks, had words with me and even invited me
and 2 girl friends to the Americana Lounge to watch you belt out some more
songs. Bill Cosby & wife were sitting behind me too. Great show! I was
the gal wearing a V neck black \"A\" line dress and you seemed to like what
you saw. I also saw you in New York, at Dangerfield Lounge where you were
appearing. I came with a date and got an autograph for the \"bulletin board\"
since I was teaching for several years, before becoming a Stockbroker
(top notch). Even was No. 1 in all sales at SHEARSON for my first year in
the business. When I was 30 yrs. old, my boss let me take over the mutual
fund, I charted the market, called the exact day turn of the stock market, and
made the fund 28 1/2 percent in one month. Broke all good records....
Then even helped a boss build a Frozen Food business. Brought in 261 new
accounts in less than two years from a brand new business, and the boss
had $15 million in his co. I also had my troubles \'cause my Kidneys went
dead and I fought back and won...and then I gave my life for 10 years to my
parents while they had health issues, before they passed on. Hard to
believe, but even though I had quite a lot of guys in my life when I was
younger, I\'m still single. I noticed that you have been married several times
and I hope that you are finally happy and content. I think you are the type who
wants to be happy and you have a very friendly, appealing nature.
I MOSTLY WANTED TO BE IN TOUCHED WITH YOU TO TELL YOU THAT
I THINK YOU ARE WONDERFUL IN EVERY WAY...AND THAT YOU SMARTLY
BUILT A FULFILLING CAREER THAT YOU CAN BE VERY PROUD OF ... ONE
THAT MAKES ALL YOUR FANS LOVE YOU ALL THE MORE...STILL BEING
AROUND FOR US ALL...TO SEE AND TO STILL ENJOY YOU & YOUR
MUSIC.
I ESPECIALLY WANT TO SEND BIRTHDAY WISHES TO YOU ON
MONDAY, JAN. 14TH. MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF THE DAY.
YES, I\'LL BE THINKING ABOUT YOU & SINGING \"HAPPY BIRTHDAY\"
FROM BOCA RATON.
TODAY, I JUST WROTE A LETTER TO PRINCESS CATHERINE, DUCHESS
OF CAMBRIDGE (ENGLAND)...PRINCE WILLIAM\'S WIFE. HER BIRTHDAY
IS THE SAME AS MINE....AHEAD OF YOURS...ON JANUARY 9 (BORN 1940).
Since I don\'t want to get old, I\'ll probably be celebrating AN ANNIVERSARY
OF ANOTHER GOOD YEAR !!!
I WISH YOU ONLY THE BEST OF EVERYTHING....AND WHATEVER YOU
WISH FOR YOURSELF THAT WILL MAKE YOU THE HAPPIEST. YOU WILL
ALWAYS BE A VERY SPECIAL PERSON IN MY LIFE AND MY HEART IS
FULL OF GREAT JOY AND GOOD MEMORIES, WHENEVER I THINK OF
YOU OR HEAR YOUR VOICE. YOU ARE THE BEST !!!!!!
x o x o x o x o x o x o x o x o x o x o x o IRENE
CALL ME........\"INDISPENSABLE\"
AM GOING BACK TO \"YOU TUBE.COM/ ....TO HEAR MORE OF THOSE
WONDERFUL SONGS OF YOURS. IT PUTS ME IN SUCH A GREAT
MOOD. PURELY MAGICAL!!! YOU\'RE VERY SPECIAL TO ME...FOR
ALWAYS.

Hi, Jack,
Remember you fondly as we acted in a couple of plays together at Uni (!) -- that was a few years ago!! Happened upon your website as I was checking who all recorded \"Every Time We Say Goodbye\" and see that you are still going at an amazing pace. Good for you... Eleanor (Ellie) Klemperer

Favorite JJ song(s): impossible dream
Forty-seven years ago Christmas day you were in Viet Nam with the Bob Hope Show and I was one lucky Lt. nurse who you asked on stage while you sang. I have long since had all my photos stolen of that event but I can still recall the thrill this young nurse in fatigues felt standing next to you in front of a sea of younger soldiers. I hope to one day , again, hear you sing live in concert somewhere, anywhere again. Thanks for the memories.

Favorite JJ song(s): \"Our Song\" \"If You Go Away\" oh heck, all of them
The oher favorite performers: to many to name
I saw Jack Jones in Branson the night Andy Williams died. He was great. His music has always meant so much to me. It is soothing, inspiring and supremely satisfying. He is the best of all the crooners. His music is more than entertainment---it is therapy.

Hey Jack am looking forward to seeing you in Llandudno next year.I first saw you live taping the \"Sound of Petula\" show for BBC way back in 1974(which the BBC still have in their archives..maybe you can rescue it!) .You and Petula did some great duets on that show...she is still performing in her 80th year and 70th year of stardom in the UK!I Just got back from seeing her do a 2 hour bilingual concert in Belgium!Thanks for the pleasure your music has given me over the years!

Favorite JJ song(s): Other side of the tracks + more
Hi to all of JJ\'s fans out there,
I am possibly the biggest JJ fan in Australasia. Apart from radio play of Wives and Lovers and the Impossible Dream, JJ is not well known in this part of the world and is virtually impossible to buy.
I have the full vinyl collection from 1959-70 minus \"Gift Of Love\". If anybody out there knows of where a good stereo copy may be located and purchased let me know.
In the meantime let us all continue to enjoy the song mastery of JJ.

Great to know that Jack has such a loyal fan in Germany.My daughter lives in Mannheim with her family and we visit frequently.We found to our dismay that Jack is virtually unknown in Germany and that you can\'t get any of his albums in the shops!
Enjoy the Farewell Tour
All the best to you Rainer

favorite JJ song(s): The years of my youth
The oher favorite performers: Matt Monro
I think I am one of a few fans he has here in Germany. First heard him singing in the early 70 when his records were played in the British Forces Radio from Cologne. Saw him first live in London at the Palladium in 1992. Since that time I come over when he is playing the UK. Have all his records - LPS - and a lot of singles and CDS. He can not sing the way he did in his younger days but he is still great. Nice to see him at the Palladium next May.

Favorite JJ song(s): Got Allot of Livin To Do, At Long Last Love
The oher favorite performers: Sinatra
From an upbeat tempo to a contrasting slow love ballad, no other performer delivers with the classic range of JJ.
JJ epotimises in his music a more optimistic era, filled with class and style. It is unfortunate younger men such as myself were unable to see such times, however listening to JJ seems to bring some of it to life.
A truely great preformer.

Thanks for all the good years and great music. I saw you inj Milwaukee in 1984 or 85 and thought you were GREAT. How can I get a signed picture (to Bob) to add to my rather massive collection. Hate to find you missing. Keep singing and keep swinging.
