At the Edmonton concert in 1975 He did God Bless the Child and I loved Blood Sweat and Tears version until I heard Jack's version and he knocked BS&T out of the water!! He can sing any type of music! So versatile!!! He just blows me away!!!! 🎵🎶🎼💋❤👍👍👍 BS&T
Jack just has a gift to come across on any type of music that he owns it... and he does!!! Talented and sweet man!! Oh! And just pretty and handsome!! Those eyes of his just melt me even now at 86yrs!! ❤💋🎼🎵🎶❤💋
Rest in Peace Jack Jones has work in film, television and theatre and recording artist. Thanks for the excellent body of work you left behind to enjoy. Jack Jones January 14, 1938 - October 23, 2024)
@@drewpall2598 GOD BLESS YOU JACK!!! REST IN PEACE!! LOVED YOU SO MUCH!! IT'S STILL HARD TO BELIEVE YOU ARE GONE!! WILL ALWAYS LOVE ALL OF YOUR MUSIC THROUGH THE YEARS BECAUSE YOU HAD SUCH A GIFT AND SHARED YOUR DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSIC SO WONDERFULLY!!! ❤❤🎼🎶🎵 SO SAD KNOWING YOU ARE GONE, BUT YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE! ❤🙏
Awesome video that's my grandpa Jimmy Blakemore playing the drums he was Jacks drummer for 30 years he started a legacy of drumming my dad plays my uncle's plays and so do I I will never forget going to there shows to see them play meeting jack and everyone begging my grandpa to let me play his drums after the show. Still have that premier drum set he's playing on grew up playing on that R.I.P grandpa the beat goes on
I saw jack Jones on the Gold Coast Australia, many years ago in the 80s... it was a great show the drummer was fantastic I found myself watching and admiring his playing. He complimented jones perfectly a very accomplished and swinging drummer.
Love Jimmy Blakemore!! Out of this world drummer! Wish I could have heard both he and Jack in person!! That concert in Edmonton was phenominal!! ❤💋🎼🎵🎶👍 You have a right to be proud of your Dad and Jack Jones.
I had the great pleasure of seeing Mr. Blakemore perform live in 1976 in New Orleans. I was a drummer with the New Orleans Summer Pops Orchestra at that time and Jack Jones was one of our guest performers. I backed many of our guest, but Jack brought his own drummer so I simply assisted in the percussion section. Mr. Jones was very good, but as a drummer, my eyes were glued to Mr. Blakemore and his playing. He was a fabulous drummer. I actually remember that huge Premier set he had. Glad you were able to keep it. Great memories. Thank you Sir.
Always gonna love you, Jack. With my punk/rock/indie/jazz genre leanings before, you’re the first one that drew me into the genre of vocals. There’s nobody like you.
He only got better all through the years!! Just went from great to phenominal!! Love the very last line from Porgy and Bess when he sings the line "BESS YOU IS MY WOMAN" AND GIVES THAT LITTLE LOOK TO THE SIDE "ALMOST A WINK"! SO SWEET AND I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT!! HAVE LOVED HIS MUSIC ALL THESE YEARS. HE'S JUST GREAT, THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT! HIS REPOTOIRE ALL THROUGH THE YEARS, FABULOUS! 🎵🎵🎼🎶 ❤❤💋💋
At age 86, he can't quite match his performances in the 1960's to 90's, when he was untouchable with talent, but he still puts on a pretty fairly show last we heard.
What treat, Geniuses that enabled treats like these that we get to see at whim shows like this talented being. Just phenomenal through & through God bless the child that has its own. We are so fortunate, thanks TH-cam ,,& thos
A fantastic concert. And for him to mention my number one favourite singer Judy Garland in his show stopped me in my tracks as they were brilliant together on her weekly televison show. I thank her for helping discover his music. Rest in peace Jack. I love his music. Got a lot of his records. One of the best voices
Res. T in peace, Jack Jones. God bless you always again. I would have love to have met you anytime, anywhere. Great voice, great singer, great history. God bless you in heaven. I know you're in God z. Deepest love you. Deepest love for his family friends out there. Sta. Y healthy save to everyone out there. God bless you all rest in peace track. Love you great voice. Miss you always. Thank you for all the great songs
I’ve always been a huge fan of Jack Jones. This concert beautifully captures his greatness. His vocal range, interpretation of a lyric, and outstanding breath control are simply unmatched. I love his “Bread medley.” That last note on “If” was incredible. I had the pleasure of meeting him several times. Truly a class act. Great singer and person.
smudger671....I understand your skepticism. I recently did a tour of the UK with Jack Jones opening his show and performing a duet. Here are the facts! Jacks voice defies the aging process so far. When you can sing your songs in the same key as your original recordings, hit any note you want with perfect diction and intonation utilizing the same breath control that you always had, and sing the song with a jazz-oriented sense of time that is flawless...you're as good as you ever were. Such is the case with Jack Jones. Pull up Jack Jones U.K. tour 'I am a Singer' and watch for yourself. P.S. When Tony Bennett was Jack's age, everything I stated applied to him as well.
Jack considers this one of the best concerts of his entire career. A viewing and hearing show why. A singer with an extraordinary voice and superb technical skills. He is the gold standard for pop singers. Thank you for posting this sensational concert.
Brazilians just adore Jack Jones. He´s sooo classy, so elegant, so distinguished. Lots of great male vocalists but Jack stands out for his lovely voice, impeccable diction and amazing charisma. Tks for sharing this gem.
He is my favorite since I was 14!!! I am 79 years old now and I love 💕 and admire him more than ever!!! Buy “ Every other day I have the blues “ and see how well he sings at 84!!!
I dated him a few times back in 1976 after he took a huge shine to me at one of his concerts.... long story... he was so gorgeous.. I'm now myself an old woman but these memories make me smile ❤
Me. too!! Since I first heard him sing and his superb voice in the 60's. Today, July, 2023. Still seeking to see, listen and watch him sing and perform in his concerts. He is just outstanding in every sense of the word ❤
You are so right!!! He is with out a doubt the very best ever!!! T have loved him since I was 14 years old!!’ I am 79 now and he is 84 and I still love 💕 him very dearly!!!
This is just a stunning performance. I have admired Jack Jones for many years, but this concert truly blows me away. I remember him since I was in high school (in the 1960s, God help me), and I swear he has only gotten better ... STILL performing, and quite ably, at, what is it? 79? He is just amazing. The entire concert is a tour de force. When does he breathe? The high notes, the low notes, he's just incredible. And that Gershwin/James Taylor/Carole King medley at the end ... it just is an experience. This was truly a flawless concert, by an incomparable singer, with awesome backup by his musicians and the Edmonton Symphony.
There are many great singers in the world, they ALL look up to this guy. He goes where other singers can only wish to go, he is the consummate performer.
Bob Anderson you lucky dog, Jack has been my idol since 1967.....my wife and Ive rocked to this concert many times. Best entertainer I’ve seen/ heard. I’ve seen him twice in SF, what an gifted man. ( handsome stud)lol
Mine too, ha ha. Michael Buble is great (especially for introducing some young people to jazz in this day and age), but he's got nothing on Jonesy, Tony Bennett, Mel Torme, Sammy Davis Jr, Sinatra etc.
Just saw Jack in concert at Scared Heart University Sat. 3/16/14 and as usual his performance was fantastic. I've seen him over the years many times in different venues and each performance was flawless. True, he has always been underrated but the true is he's the best and he proves it everytime.
He surpassed his Dad in a lot of ways!! He crossed over in so many areas! He was super in so many ways! He had wonderful connections with people in England etc!! He just blows my mind how good he is!! Classical, rock and roll, jazz, anything he chooses to do, he is great at it!! So multi-talented!!!!! WOW AND WOW!!! HE'S A SUPRR-STAR TO ME AND ALWAYS WILL BE!! 🎶🎵🎼🎶🎵🎼❤❤💋💋
This concert is stunning! I have been listening to Jack Jones all of my life but only came across this at the start of the COVID pandemic. Needless to say I have listened to it many, many times since then. His timing is impeccable and he is ALWAYS in tune. Great arrangements and great band. Probably the most technically gifted singer I have ever heard (along with Sammy Davis Jr). I could write a thesis on why this concert is so great but I’ll leave with just one word - perfection!
At this concert in Edmonton, you could tell his throat was bothering him a little, but I used to sing and I can detect things like that, you couldn't ask for a better performance!!! Superb in every way!! Love him and always will!!! ❤💋🎼🎶🎵 🎼🎶🎵 ould
Jack Jones incredibly great in concert, luckily experienced this phenomenal singer many times live from 70's on & always a thrill & Mr. Jones has still got it! This sublime trip back to the 70's is great!!!
THIS!!!.. is how Jack sounded...the night I saw him in L.A...at the Century Plaza!..in '72...THANK YOU!!!.. for this!...I thought I'd never!..hear him sounding as good as he did that night...until now!...
the best version of she,excelent version.I never before hear something like in my life.thanks jack I saw you in tv when I had only 6 years,and said the best.
I love Jack Jones in this 1976 concert which I am so happy has been preserved on video, and I love Jack's singing all through the decades as well as now in 2014. Thank you to Jack for all the pleasure his singing has given!
Great musical gifts what an impact on so many life’s …..he looks so vibrant during this concert it’s difficult to know that he passed on to his next gig ….God Bless JJ the very best in my lifetime.
With all due respect to his contemporaries and near comtemporaries, Jack Jones' vocal capabilities were so huge that anyone else had to be a big admirer. Yes, even Sinatra.
Mickey you are so right!!! Jack is the absolute best there is!!! He is 84 years old now and he is making albums and doing gigs in Palm Springs!!! Sinatra could never hold a candle to Jack and he knew it!!!
@@pedrobrun9 You’re joking, right? Jones didn’t have nearly the showmanship or charisma of Sinatra. Sure, Jones was very technically proficient, but Sinatra could SELL a song to his audience better than anyone.
Just a man who loves to sing. JJ was expanding his performing range with a much wider head voice. He most certainly always had the range but started using it in the 70's. A great talent and a career that has lasted over 50 years at this juncture. That doesn't happen with staying power.
Bill Brimmer yes, a totally different sounding performer from the early Judy Garland performances and other TV shows like the Carol Burnet show, each additional 5 years of his long career he kept adding newer dimensions and emotions to his great performance. Both body and emotions opened up allowing him to let it fly. He was so technically perfect he didn’t have to think any longe, he and his music were one.
I've just "re-discovered" him and realized what a kindred spirit he was/is. (Found an old cassette which led to watching this. I'm excited to read that some of you fans have seen him perform recently. I will try to do this as well. How wonderful.
This is a masterclass in pop singing. I've watched this concert more times than I care to admit. Still can't believe his last note(s) on "The Impossible Dream" at 31:07. Never heard another pop singer do that or even attempt it. Then immediately follows it up with the best rendition of "Didn't We" that I have ever heard. Incredible.
Wow! Magnificent singing and orchestra arrangements! And in my hometown Edmonton Alberta. I loved the Gershwin/King/ Taylor medley. Brilliant idea! Thx so much for posting.
What can you say.........you will never hear anything live better than this! That is unless you immediately put on Jack Jones live at the Sands!!!!!!!! And, the funny thing is that he sings that well today. WOW!
Seeing your name brought back great memories, Bob. When you were singing at the "Top of the Dunes" I was a dancing in "Casino de Paris". Jack was someone I connected with in Vegas, SS Norway and in LA. I share your admiration for him.
she by jacks jones for me was the very and the best version ,never hear in my life,excepcional .great singer.great orchesta,the edmonton,always in my mind this song and the film nothing hill,.great for everywhere you see.great all,for ever jack an nothing hill.unforgetable,soy de argentina,ciudad de rosario
JACK JONES IS A TREMENOUSLY TALENTED SINGER. HE ALWAYS CHOSE THE BEST SONGS TO SING. HE IS SEXY, GORGEOUS, ADORABLE, LOVEABLE . . .WELL YOU GET MY DRIFT. . . .SYLVIA!
Im a huge fan of Jack Jones, always will be,watched his concerts at the Araneta Coliseum whenever he performed here, collected his albums and joined the Jack Jones International Fan Club. I like his earlier albums.
Double J nothing better still love the "There's love, there's love, and there's love" Kapp album as numero uno of all his albums but thanks for this fine post...
Wow - a concert of Jack Jones in my city! Fantastic! Never knew this existed! I would have been ten years old when he made this appearance. We had some amazing singers record in Edmonton over the years. Procol Harum was one, and Roberta Flack another. Her recording of "Jesse" with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and Roberta accompanying herself on piano is on YT and absolutely sublime.
This is\an outstanding Concert Jack, You sure are the ultimate Singer an amazing wonderful talent. Pity when you came back to the Palladium, where I was waiting sure got a terrible shock if you know what I mean, so sad but nothing I could do, still around though Stay strong my love xxxx
Still in awe at this amazing Concert really fabulous, Still not well I will see you again 'but must get better. I wish I could tell you but I do not write these things to the\World. I am trying. You take care of yourself, stay strong. I send you all the love that I have locked inside for you. xxxxxxx
Sinatra never had the vocal abilities that Jack does, nor anybody else that was singing back then and all the way to now! He has an ability to adapt his to different styles!! Love him!! Pure class and a great talent that GOD gave him! BLESS HIM!!! ❤❤💋🎵🎶🎼
Think the ol boy is singing over a cold! Edmonton ain't South Beach, ya know ;) And JJ shows how to DO it! Vic Damone in Chicago-live album- does it too. As a fellow "boy singer" you learn these things. Have to! And you learn it from the masters, like JJ. Saw him last year in Laughlin, NV. Second time, and just as good as this vid. Like wine, aged and mellowed but amazing and one of 3 last holders of "Entertainer" too. Keep the music alive. And THANKS JD for posting this!!!! :)
Jack Jones, one of the best of the rest, Frank, Dean, Tony, great guy, extremely pleasant, I asked him on one occasion why he has not recorded ' My Way ', I feel it is just right for his voice,& range, his response was immediate, " because its Frank's song", & he never has recorded it, or even sung it to my knowledge, & we have been to at least a dozen concerts over the years, a shame that age catches up with us all, I'm similarly aged to Jack. El TJR de Canaries.😊😊😊😊

His control on the long notes is outstanding!
Nobody else can beat Jack's singing. I've been a fan of his ever since the age of 7 years old & still am today.
Good on you Jack.
you have excellent taste
I wonder if Alan ever dreamed his son would ever grow up to be this good. Hell Jack, you must have made him so proud.

Jack Jones has won several grammy awards, sang the Love Boat theme and is an international star. His dad was a great opera singer.
After fifty years I discovered another aspect of this amazing singer! What a singer!

Lots of great male vocalists but Jack stands out for his lovely voice, impeccable diction and amazing charisma. Tks for sharing this gem.
You got those adjectives right- classy, elegant, and distinguished. :D
I´m glad you agree. That´s how we Brazilians rate him. Too bad he has never been here.
He's one of my 2 fave male singers in my whole life + I'm 81!!!

When I said he sings that well today....I am talking about now.....July 2014. I love him and we are close friends.
With all due respects, he doesn't sing as well as he did 30 years ago. it's an impossibility for any singer as he ages.
He doesn’t have his youthful range any longer but the sound quality is still pretty dam good.

Awesome! You can keep Sinatra. Severely underrated singer. This guy had jazz running through his veins.
Amazing phrasing and voice.
This is a masterclass in pop singing. I've watched this concert more times than I care to admit. Still can't believe his last note(s) on "The Impossible Dream" at 31:07. Never heard another pop singer do that or even attempt it. Then immediately follows it up with the best rendition of "Didn't We" that I have ever heard. Incredible.
That version of Favourite Things goes like a rocket, and Jack sings it brilliantly! Its' quite a thrilling sound.
He was my mum's favourite singer.
It just never ceases to amaze me just how marvellous Jack Jones was and today too, 2017. What a great voice !!!
Wow! Magnificent singing and orchestra arrangements! And in my hometown Edmonton Alberta. I loved the Gershwin/King/ Taylor medley. Brilliant idea! Thx so much for posting.
What can you say.........you will never hear anything live better than this! That is unless you immediately put on Jack Jones live at the Sands!!!!!!!! And, the funny thing is that he sings that well today. WOW!
Seeing your name brought back great memories, Bob. When you were singing at the "Top of the Dunes" I was a dancing in "Casino de Paris". Jack was someone I connected with in Vegas, SS Norway and in LA. I share your admiration for him.
Yes, he sure DOES sing this well today! I just saw him last night (Aug. 2017), and he's 79 years old! INCREDIBLE!
Bob you could have been a straight up pop singer yourself, but we all would have been denied your other greatness in life.
saw him first time back in 76 and many more over the years. 3 years ago last time i saw him perform. Still fantastic. Love you Jack.
I have always loved Jack's music, back to his concerts in St Louis!
The MOST wonderful singer!

JACK JONES IS A TREMENOUSLY TALENTED SINGER. HE ALWAYS CHOSE THE BEST SONGS TO SING. HE IS SEXY, GORGEOUS, ADORABLE, LOVEABLE . . .WELL YOU GET MY DRIFT. . . .SYLVIA!
Saw him live 3 times. 3 great performances by a singing maestro.
Im a huge fan of Jack Jones, always will be,watched his concerts at the Araneta Coliseum whenever he performed here, collected his albums and joined the Jack Jones International Fan Club. I like his earlier albums.
Double J nothing better still love the "There's love, there's love, and there's love" Kapp album as numero uno of all his albums but thanks for this fine post...
Truly superb singer. Amazing voice. Good looking too.
Magnificent Jack Jones performance show a great singer in prime form...BRAVO!
My very favorite singer! He has been for years!!
Wow - a concert of Jack Jones in my city! Fantastic! Never knew this existed! I would have been ten years old when he made this appearance. We had some amazing singers record in Edmonton over the years. Procol Harum was one, and Roberta Flack another. Her recording of "Jesse" with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and Roberta accompanying herself on piano is on YT and absolutely sublime.
And when he uses his operatic ability, it just sends cold chills up and down me!!! 🎶🎼🎵
Great vocal control Wonder ful 💯🇦🇺🙏♥️
That "B" he hits in full voice at 37:38 is pretty impressive.
He did the high notes on the impossible dream
R.I.P. Jack Jones, you were one of the greats
Simply the best - always loved JJ always will .
Wow. The last note of If. Amazing control.
This is\an outstanding Concert Jack, You sure are the ultimate Singer an amazing wonderful talent. Pity when you came back to the Palladium, where I was waiting sure got a terrible shock if you know what I mean, so sad but nothing I could do, still around though Stay strong my love xxxx
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a 72yo Aussie fan.
Excellent. Always enjoy Jack Jones. Marvelous talent.
Superb singer is jack Jones can never be equalled by any of our celebrated singers now adays.
What a brilliant performance!
Absolutely aaaamazing... Bravo, Jack!
His musical shading is incredible - taken from his operatic training!
The way he sings leave goosebumps everywhere... his passion is precise and I am so in love with a voice of his. :D Nice
My fave singer of all time ♡
Still in awe at this amazing Concert really fabulous, Still not well I will see you again 'but must get better. I wish I could tell you but I do not write these things to the\World. I am trying. You take care of yourself, stay strong. I send you all the love that I have locked inside for you. xxxxxxx
Sinatra never had the vocal abilities that Jack does, nor anybody else that was singing back then and all the way to now! He has an ability to adapt his to different styles!! Love him!! Pure class and a great talent that GOD gave him! BLESS HIM!!! ❤❤💋🎵🎶🎼
are u kidding? Besides Sinatra, did you ever hear of: Sammy Davis, Bobby Darrin and Andy Williams?
Great music and I loved his style.
I’ve watched young JJs few shows often. Too bad he didn’t record others as this and one other.
Think the ol boy is singing over a cold! Edmonton ain't South Beach, ya know ;) And JJ shows how to DO it! Vic Damone in Chicago-live album- does it too. As a fellow "boy singer" you learn these things. Have to! And you learn it from the masters, like JJ. Saw him last year in Laughlin, NV. Second time, and just as good as this vid. Like wine, aged and mellowed but amazing and one of 3 last holders of "Entertainer" too. Keep the music alive. And THANKS JD for posting this!!!! :)
This is greatness!😊
Very appreciative for uploading!
Thank you
Jack Jones, one of the best of the rest, Frank, Dean, Tony, great guy, extremely pleasant, I asked him on one occasion why he has not recorded ' My Way ', I feel it is just right for his voice,& range, his response was immediate, " because its Frank's song", & he never has recorded it, or even sung it to my knowledge, & we have been to at least a dozen concerts over the years, a shame that age catches up with us all, I'm similarly aged to Jack.
