His bluesy vocal delivery developed out of listening to artists like Little Richard, Solomon Burke, Jackie Wilson and others. Earlier this year, Jack White produced and released Tom covering Howlin' Wolf's "Evil" on White's Third Man Records. Last month, Jones released a new album, Spirit In The Room.
