"EMOTIONALLY-cracked vocals, an understated, intimate delivery, sweet melodies, perceptive lyrics. it has all the hallmarks of a Jim Jones album. Subtly sprinkled with stunning atmospheric sounds and Daylight and Stars is well on its way to becoming a contemporary contemplative classic."

“Jim Jones had everyone mesmerised with some lovely tunes and cracked vocals. The least known performer here, he was a real revelation and his new album can’t come soon enough”. – Jim Jones playing at the Electric Dustbowl Gig @ The Musician, Leicester –20th September 2008 - Americana-UK.com - Review by Morag Rose & Jeremy Searle

"Pouring his life into his music is what South West based Acoustic singer songwriter Jim Jones does best. Honest, emotional glimpses of moments caught in song and played with simplicity, sincerity
and soul." – D Reid - Music Magazine
Archived reviews -
“The audience was both vocal and warm as support act Jim Jones accompanied by David Little took to the floor (there is no stage, just a line in the sand). They proceeded to set the tone and the bar with an half hour set of Jones numbers and one cover which were delivered with honesty and musicianship that was unexpected and at times very beautiful. Many acoustic duos run adrift on the rocks of plangent repetition but in this case Jones’ songs had the strength and individuality to become separate entities within the set and the cover of Mr. Young’s “Ride my Llama” was straightforward and unembellished by any tinkering and all the better for it. It is rare that a support act is asked for an encore but these boys were - they didn't deliver but they were asked. “ - Jim Jones supporting Peter Bruntnell - @ The Bedford Star - 11th November 2005
Review by Keith Hargreaves

“I've heard Jim Jones perform his songs with just an acoustic guitar. His emotionally-cracked vocals, understated and intimate were able to bring out every word and nuance of his perceptive lyrics. You could-hear a pin drop. It's hard to get people's attention in a pub but everyone seemed mesmerised, lost in their own thoughts.” - Rosanna Rothery – NDJ – April 2005
