Tom Jones - Rise and Fall (1970 - 1987)

In the early 1970s, Tom Jones had a number of hit singles, including "She's A Lady," "Till," and "The New Mexican Puppeteer," but in the mid 1970s his popularity declined, although he did have a big hit in 1976 with "Say You'll Stay Until Tomorrow," which went to #1 on the U.S. country chart and #15 on the Billboard Hot 100.

In the early 1980s, Tom Jones started to record country music. From 1980 to 1986, Jones had nine songs hit the top 40 on the U.S. country chart, yet he failed to crack the top 100 in the U.K. or chart on the Billboard Hot 100.

After Jones' long-time manager Gordon Mills died of cancer on 29 July 1986, Jones' son Mark became his new manager. Mark recognized that Jones was incorporating modern music in his live shows and suggested that he should start to record songs from a fresh genre and leave country music behind.

In 1987, Tom Jones re-entered the singles chart with "A Boy From Nowhere," which went to #2 in The U.K. The following year, he covered Prince's Kiss with The Art of Noise. The song was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching #5 in the U.K. and #31 in the U.S. The video for "Kiss" was seen in heavy rotation on both MTV and VH1, and it won the MTV Video Music Award for Breakthrough Video."

Tom Jones - Rise of Fame

In 1967, Tom Jones performed for the first time in Las Vegas at the Flamingo. His charismatic performances and style of dress (increasingly featuring his open half unbuttoned shirts and tight pants) became part of his stage act. Women would swoon and scream, and some would throw their knickers on stage. Soon after he began to play Las Vegas, he chose to record less, instead concentrating on his lucrative club performances. At Caesars Palace, his shows were traditionally a knicker-hurling frenzy of raw sexual tension and good-time entertainment. It was there that woman started throwing hotel room keys on stage. Jones and his idol Elvis Presley met in 1965 at the Paramount film stage, when Elvis was filming Paradise, Hawaiian Style. Afterward, they became good friends, spending more and more time together in Las Vegas. Their friendship endured until Presley's death in 1977.

Tom Jones - Intial Singles

Many record companies found Jones' stage presence, act, and vocal delivery too raucous and raunchy. Eventually, Mills got Jones a recording contract with Decca. His first single, "Chills and Fever," was released in late 1964. It didn't chart, but the follow-up, "It's Not Unusual", which Mills wrote, became an international hit. The BBC initially refused to play it, but an offshore pirate radio station, Radio Caroline, promoted it. The heavily orchestrated pop arrangement perfectly meshed with Jones' swinging, sexy image, and in early 1965, "It's Not Unusual" reached number one in the UK and the top ten in the USA.

During 1965, Mills secured a number of movie themes for Tom Jones to record, including the themes to What's New Pussycat? and the James Bond film Thunderball. Jones was also awarded the Grammy Award for Best New Artist for 1965.

In 1966, Jones' popularity began to slip somewhat, causing Mills to redesign the singer's image into a more respectable and mature crooner. Tom Jones also began to sing material that appealed to a wider audience, such as the big country hit "Green, Green Grass of Home." The strategy worked and Jones returned to the top of the charts in the UK and began hitting the Top 40 again in the USA. For the remainder of the decade, he scored a consistent string of hits on both sides of the Atlantic.

Tom Jones - First Break


Tom Jones became the frontman for Tommy Scott and the Senators, a Welsh beat group, in 1963. They soon gained a local following and reputation in South Wales.

In 1964, Tom Jones recorded several solo tracks with producer Joe Meek, who took them to various labels, but had little success. Later that year, Decca producer Peter Sullivan saw Tommy Scott and The Senators performing in a club and directed them to manager Phil Solomon, but their partnership was short-lived.

The group continued to play gigs at dance halls and working men's clubs in South Wales. One night, at the Top Hat in Cwmtillery, Wales, Jones was spotted by Gordon Mills, a London-based manager originally from South Wales. Mills became Jones' manager, and took the young singer to London. He contrived the stage name, "Tom Jones," which not only linked the singer to the image of the title character in Tony Richardson's hit film, but also emphasized Jones' Welsh nationality.
