a dear in the headlights'A Dear in the Head Lights'

Royal Jones: A Dear in the Headlights The Royal Mr. Jones is back, and this trip is more polished and sophisticated. The music has taken a massive step up, with killer piano, funky horns, demanding bass, and Motownish female backup vocalists with harmonies to die for. It would be classy enough for the Upper East Side, if Mr. Jones would just put on a tux and behave himself. Fortunately for all of us, he doesn't. (Reviewed by Jennifer Layton) Read this review.
