Mr. Jones should be seen in a fair light. Most 68 year-olds find it hard to crap in the right place and ruin their grandchildren’s afternoons with the constant repetition of 5 or 6 stories. Seen in that way this is a pretty good try. A Springsteen cover of ‘The Hitter’ obviously stands out. It is the kind of performance which makes you hope you never catch Jones in a dark alley. Seeing how pensions are worth nothing anymore this should secure him a few more months of incontinence nappies.
