Jack Jones is a great singer and always been a great, his voice has a wide range, to be able to sing duet with a female singrs, the male singer need to have a wide range to be able to sing a harmony above her voice....
I like the way he rescues her when she gets the words wrong at the end. She starts to sing "And when my love for life..." He smoothly sings along "Then one by one the stars.." and gets her on the right track. Ever the professional eh?
What an incredible singer ms Bassy proves to be in this vid...No wonder she got the nod to do the theme in at least one major James Bond film "Gold Finger" Jack Jones has long proven his ability..The young Idol singers need to listen to Shirley and gather some real awareness of a great singer. The duet did not do it for me. I would have preferred to hear them sing this seperately..but , but it was a real audience pleaser none the less.
inspite of the low tech audio eqpt during that time, the quality of their voices are out of this world..shirley and jack..awesome! awesome! jack jones never fails to fascinate me with his control and technique..changing in an instant his pitch..only very very few real singers can do this..if you are a singer...jack jones without doubt is tops on your list..
Awesome duet from two of the greatest ever...Jack is still incredible in concert and The Performance, new Shirley cd is amazing...Bravo Jack & Shirley and long live your glorious talent!!!
Jack still fills theatres when he comes to this country, so there are thousands of us who still think he's the greatest. Longmay he continue. Hope he sings on as long as his dad
brilliant - Jack Jones is technically so so underrated - and watch near the end of the song how he cleverly gets shirley out of trouble when she begins to sing the wrong words....[ AND ONE [ or is it.... WHEN!!!! ] BY ONE THE STARS......]
It's a shame that Jack Jones is underrated but this duet with the great Shirley Bassey is divine! And I never noticed the little mistake that Shirley makes but Jack Jones cleverly "gets her out of trouble". Now this is a real duet! Wish there were more duets like this today.
Yes, more, more...can't get enought..this videlo is amazingly wonderful, JACK JONES (I'm in heaven)...he certainly was a looker, let alone one of the world's best singers. And Shirley Bassey is great, esp. with JJ.
What a lovely performance. Thanks for posting this. Not to many male performers are brave enough to sing with the gloriously talented Dame Shirley, but this Jack Jones held his own. Very pretty.

A truly wonderful duet that Jack sings in a very professional, classy, talented way to partner the divine Miss Bassey.
More please!
