Tom Jones at the BBC
Tom discusses his finest recordings and career highlights from the 60s until now, touching on his work in America, with The Voice and his interest in covering important songs.
In interviews on BBC radio, legendary singer Tom Jones talks about his career from his hit debut in the Swinging Sixties up to his critically acclaimed, more reflective blues, soul and gospel tinged albums of recent years. He talks through his success with It’s Not Unusual, Green Green Grass of Home, Delilah, Thunderball, Kiss, Mama Told Me Not To Come and his atmospheric covers of songs by Richard Thompson, Terry Callier and Bob Dylan.
Tom talks movingly about the loss of the great love of his life, his late wife and childhood sweetheart Linda, as well as his relationship with his son Mark, who has always steered the direction of his recordings and performances as his manager. In addition, Tom discusses his love of live music, his residency in Las Vegas and being happy to help new artists on television through The Voice.
