Now a royal knight, Tom Jones is going strong after 40 years of low-buttoned shirts, hip thrusts, and classic, lady-killing croons; at 66, the legend has one massive discography. It was 1967 when he hit pay-dirt with Green, Green Grass of Home and the singles "It's Not Unusual," "Delilah," and "She's a Lady." Jones brings to these and all his hits a rockabilly showmanship, having performed with all the contemporaries in YMCAs and basement bars everywhere: Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Elvis, and Little Richard. The Tom Jones live experience is well-documented on CD and DVD, but nothing can replace a splash of sweat from the brow of the sex machine himself.
