3.0 out of 5 stars copy controll disaster, March 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Jones (Audio CD)

This is not the best Tom Jones record ever made but it could be listenable if it didn't contain copy control. I tried to listen it in my pc. It copied some kind of program to hard disk and then a very poor quality sound was coming out stopping now and then. I was advised that it is not possible to get an ordinary good cd sound because of this control system.The disk contains the material twice: good sound for cd players and a poor one for pcs. It doesn't play in every player (many carplayers or walkmans don't play it at all).

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this CD, August 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Jones (Audio CD)

Please understand -- this CD is NOT "It's Not Unusual"! I've loved Tom Jones and his music since I was 8 years old and I am so happy I bought this CD. I've literally listened to it every day. Pairing Tom with Wyclef Jean may seem strange but give this CD a chance!! Don't expect/think the 1970's. It's so cool to hear that great Voice singing modern hip songs. It's a bit reggae, hip-hop, dance but there are also beautiful ballads. Tom Jones is not stuck in a 60's/70's music rut and I think that's fantastic. He did great through the 80's/90's and is continuing into this century. I hope he never stops!!

I really don't understand why this guy is so panned by the critics. Maybe it is some kind of envy that he looks so and sings so at his age?
Anyway, this album is vintage Tom Jones, with a touch of the new millenium. He manages to stay what he always have been in all those years, and at the same time he modernizes his music.
The first single Tom Jones International is one of the best his songs ever, although I thing that Holiday will be biggest hit in the charts.
Don't believe to all those snobbish little reviews (it comes to mind that one in Q magazine), go and buy this CD and you will be satisfied.
