John Allan Jones (born January 14, 1938) is an American singer[2] and actor.
Jones is primarily a straight-pop singer (even when he recorded contemporary material) whose forays into jazz are mostly of the big-band/swing variety. He has won two Grammy Awards[2] and has received a total of five nominations.[3]
Jones continues to perform concerts around the world and remains popular in Las Vegas. His recordings include "Lollipops and Roses", "Wives and Lovers", "The Race Is On", "The Impossible Dream" and "Call Me Irresponsible". He also sang the opening themes for television series The Love Boat and the 1968 film Anzio ("This World Is Yours"), as well as the title song for the 1963 film Love with the Proper Stranger, which played on a radio in the film, contributing to the storyline.
