BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Quotes from articles mentioning Brent Jones
He loved being Elvis Presley ... I don't think he could have been an old Elvis. Elvis always prided himself on the way he looked. Always. When that started to slip, I knew something was wrong.

I don't want to stop singing, and I dread the day I have to ... I'm lucky my voice is still strong. I used to smoke, but I stopped in the '60s. How Frank Sinatra did it, I don't know. He'd smoke and sing at the same time. That dryness and heat, it's the worst thing for singers.

It caught up with me. I thought, why are people going on about the way I look? Then seeing old footage, hmm, did I have to wear pants that tight? It backfired. If you're going to sing sexy songs, you need to get a reaction, but it can overpower you

It's a bragging song ... I liked it, but I thought, what are people going to think? But it's done in a clever way, not in a sloppy or blatantly sexy way. It's a wink.

Tom Jones is like the William Shatner of classic-pop singers ... He has one of those voices that's still powerful and instantly recognizable, and perhaps a bit kitschy. His willingness to poke fun at his panty-catching reputation and his engagement with trends set him apart from MOR nostalgists like Engelbert Humperdinck.

I’ve been working with the high school team and certainly that’s been a blast. I don’t think football will ever leave me. I think most of the guys who’ve played the game on that level feel the same way. Somehow you’re always drawn back and it’s exciting to be on the field coaching.
