Recording TOM JONES has the same effect as driving a fast sports car on a motorway, exciting and exhilarating. Whether Tom Jones is purring softly and slowly through a romantic ballad or lustily giving out with a fast up-beat number you are guaranteed a performance which will be diffenent.
Tom Jones during his short singing career has already been acclaimed by various critics as one of the most exciting visual performers on the recording scene. Off stage, a quietly spoken person, Tom explodes into visual and vocal action when the music begins. He has a unique ability of getting inside a song, interpreting the complete meaning of the lyrics, draining the song of everything it has to offer and yet still managing to squeeze the last vestige of feeling from both melody and lyrics.
On this L.P. Tom has ample opportunity to demonstrate his varied and considerable vocal talents. Side I is used as a showcase for the treatment which Tom gives to beat numbers such-as “| Need Your Loving” and “Worried Man” plus six other titles including his first smash-hit “It’s Not Unusual” and his current hit “Once Upon a Time”. His performance can best be described as “gutsy”. This sums up in one short word the raving dynamic performance Tom manages to whip up.
In contrast to this power-house side, Side 2 reveals Tom Jones in another light. His tender romantic treatment of such lovely ballads as “Spanish Harlem” and “The Rose” illustrates. fully this other facet of his singing ability. He is by turns, sad, wistful, tender and intimate, delivering the words with a deep sincerity. His “soul treatment” of “If You Need Me” must rank as one of his finest performances.
One has only to listen to this L.P. to recognise and appreciate the very fine and unique arrangements of all these numbers. The arranger, Les Reed, who also collaborated with Gordon Mills in the writing of Tom Jones first Single hit “It’s Not Unusual” must surely be congratulated for his very exciting and lush, imaginative arrangements. Les has again got together with Gordon to pen one of the three new titles on the L.P. “I’ve Got A Heart”. The remaining two new titles are the sole work of GardémMills: One is a beautiful ballad called “The Rose” and the other a ballad with abeat entitled “Some Other:Guy”: Assembled on this L.P. are outstanding songs and arrangements which only need the firing-spark of Tom Jones to enable it to explode into action on your recordcmachine: So, like driving a car, switch on the machine, put the nedle into the first track and listen to it go, but don’t exceed 33 r.p.m.
Peter Sullivan.
Первый полноценный лонгплей ТиДжея, состоящий из каверов и специально написанных для него песен, авторами которых были Лес Рид и Гордон Миллс. В диск вошел первый мегахит будущей звезды It's Not Unusual и потрясающая по красоте баллада The Rose.
Пластинка сохранилась почти в первозданном виде (за что огромное спасибо ее бывшим владельцам), что позволяет услышать как она звучала сразу после покупки в магазине в 1965 году!
