Other commentors weirdly limited and negative. who cannot spell. Q rocked. You guys don't get it. As the man said, you got to go to know. Go.
A sad, small state of mind to think travel requires money.

Len not one hard followup questions to his many rediculous statements. Wimp afraid to offend the genius.

Are we to teach Rap in our schools??
Len, challenge this guy, you wont becuase he is black.
Please ask Mr. Jones how he came to choose these guests on his album. How was it working with Amy Winehouse and how did you choose It's My Party for her to sing?
Please ask Mr Jones if he thinks it is Michael Jackson's voice on the new MJ record, as his family believes it's an imposter.
Please ask Mr. Jones if it is true that the real boss of the great Lionel Hampton band was his wife Gladys.
