There is the older stuff - which is great then there is his contemporary stuff - and you know what, it's great too! This album receives a lot of criticism, and I suppose some of it is warranted, but I cant help digging this album. Mr Jones has a once in a million years voice. There is simply nobody else like him - nor will there ever be. So for that reason alone, we need to savor every God given note he imparts to us. I am ashamed to admit that I did not look closer at this mans legacy until recently. There is much more to him than Vegas and "It's not unusual"... this album might not be the best place to start, but it is certainly a scenic road you travel on in your Tom Jones journey.
Tom Jones still has one of the most iconic voices in music. This is a great compilation of some of the music worlds best songs. On this CD, Tom pairs with some of the other great vocalists that we all love: Van Morrison, Chrissie Hynde, Simply Red, James Taylor. Some of the music worlds most sought after musicians provide fabulous scores on this CD. Tom's version of "Burning Down The House" by THE TALKING HEADS is so surprisingly good it alone is worth the price of admission to this CD!
