Heard a bit of Disturbing News Regarding Jethro Jones from Wolverhampton - Jethro Was Out @ A Dance Club in The USA. I Am Not Sure of The Exact Location - But My Friend John Fazer From Hemel, Spoke to him Last Year & He Was In LA @ The Time - Anyway He Was Dancing Away in His Own Unique Style, @ A Music Club in A Major City of The USA, When He Was Surrounded By A Group of Afro-American's, Who Took It Apon Themselves to Be Judge & Jury, And Decided That Because of The Way That He Was Dancing, That He Was GAY - It Was Then That The Large Gang Of "BLACKS" Decided to Kick The F*ck Out of Him - Apparentley He Was Quite Seriously Hurt in This incident But Not Fatal - I Thought That The Music & Club Scene Had Broken Down A Lot of It's Social Barrier's - This Incedent is Deplorable & Jethro WAS NOT GAY & Never Gave That Impression - Now Jethro's Dance Style is Very Similar To The Style Of Keb Darge with Less Floorwork - But A Lot Smoother Around The Edges, He Always Had Smoothness & Grace When Dancing, One Thing That Makes Me Sad About This Incedent is That I Know That Jethro Had So Many " Black " Friends over the Years - & His Undying Love for Black MUsic.... And to Note That Jethro Jones along with a Few others including Glenn From Leicester Were Actually The First Real Northern Dancers on UK TV Dancing To Footsee on Top Of The Pops in 1973....
