As Sir Tom Jones approaches his 80th birthday Ken revisits a Tracks of My Years interview with the legendary singer from the archives. Their chat was first broadcast in 2008 and on this episode Tom's choices come from Dusty Springfield and Prince. Tom's incredible career in music spans six decades and he's sold over 100 million records. Tom is a music icon, who has achieved hit singles in both the UK and the USA with songs including; It's Not Unusual, What's New Pussycat, She's A Lady, Delilah, Sex Bomb and the theme from the James Bond movie Thunderball. From 1969-1971 he had his own TV show, This Is Tom Jones, which featured star guests including Shirley Bassey, Nancy Sinatra, Peter Sellers, Cher, Dusty Springfield and Liza Minnelli. Tom also played himself in the 1996 Tim Burton movie Mars Attacks and made a guest appearance in hit US TV show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. More recently Tom has returned to our screens as a coach on The Voice UK for eight seasons in the 2010s, with one of his artists winning the show on two occasions.
Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz and your dedications with today's love song. There's also the record and album of the week.
