Tom Jones (4.0/5)

Tom Jones' distinctive Welsh baritone needed no grand production to entertain a full-house.  Singing slightly within himself on a very hot night the audience appreciated a more soulful, gospel, sound than the booming sex bomb of old.  No more so than in powerful and moving renderings of "Elvis Presley Blues" and Leonard Cohen's "Tower Of Song", with minimal accompaniment.   A contemplative set reflecting fifty years of musical knowledge and experience.
