About
James Jones (June 2, 1930 – August 2, 2012) was an American singer-songwriter who moved to New York City as a teenager. His biggest hits were "Handy Man" (1959) and "Good Timin'" (1960). According to Allmusic journalist Steve Huey, Jones sang "in a smooth yet soulful falsetto modeled on the likes of Clyde McPhatter and Sam Cooke."
