RIP Tom Jones

Wish I would have read Cleeds post before I permed my hair (as a tribute).

My upbringing was very different. My parents listened to all of the usual (but good) of that time; Andy Williams, Tont Bennett and Sinatra etc. When I started high school, my first influences were more Jethro Tull, Jimi Hendrix and Cream as well as Joni Mitchell CSNY etc. I never had that country/Americana early influence. 

As a sidebar though, my dentist while I was growing up was Dr Berger, and he and his wife and family (called The Bergerfolk) used to perform regularly with Pete Seeger.

That video w/ Janis Joplin was pretty amazing.

There was something more recent with TJ, Van Morrison and Jeff Beck--

Guy had enduring talent.  RIP

Let's get our Tom Jones correct. This is not the singer who passed.

That has already been established.
