Tom Jones ‎– From The Heart (LP)

€4.95

September 1966, Tom Jones released From the Heart, an album that captured his powerhouse voice in a time when popular music was undergoing seismic change. While the Beatles were pushing boundaries with Revolver and the Rolling Stones were taking blues to grittier places, Jones delivered an LP that leaned into his strengths—big ballads, dramatic arrangements, and a touch of Vegas showmanship before he ever set foot on the Strip.

From the Heart showcased Jones’ ability to interpret classics like “Begin the Beguine” and “Once Upon a Time,” delivering them with a voice that was equal parts grit and velvet. This record wasn’t chasing psychedelic sounds or garage-rock rawness—it was a reminder that a great singer could still stop you in your tracks with pure vocal firepower.

In 1966, pop was exploding in every direction, but Tom Jones carved his own lane, one that led him to international stardom and made him a household name. Nearly six decades later, this album stands as a snapshot of a young Welshman on the rise, proving that timeless style never goes out of fashion.
