Tom Jones - Velvet+Steel=Gold 1964-1969 (3CD, 1993)

Tom Jones est l'un des chanteurs les plus populaires à avoir émergé de la British Invasion. Depuis le milieu des années 60, Jones a chanté presque toutes les formes de musique populaire -- pop, rock, airs à succès, country, dance, et techno, il a tout fait. Son style actuel -- baryton robuste à la voix profonde peu soucieux de la nuance et de la subtilité -- a toujours été le même, seules les musiques d'accompagnement ont changé. Sur scène, Jones met à profit son sex appeal, dégageant une sexualité brute qui lui a valu l'adoration de nombreuses fans ferventes. Le nombre d'adeptes de Jones n'a pas diminué au cours des décennies, il a su exploiter les tendances, attirant de nouveaux fans tout retenant la base.
