Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is great fun....and features some brilliant vocals by Tom Jones...who like Elvis was a sex symbol who actually had some powerful pipes! The guest stars are a who's who of the era...well, like the Who, Joe Cocker, Aretha Franklin , Janis Joplin, Little Richard and Stevie Wonder...wow! The comic support by a young Richard Pryor, Pat Paulson, Peter Sellers are wonderful. The quality of the video is very good and Mr Jones spiced the production up with fun intros and a half hour interview from this year. All great stuff...and not lip synched! very edgy versions of some of these tunes and a bit raw and unpolished at times.
Oh..and to the "EXPERT" who reviewed this title months before it came out..
and complained about the 8 times Tom Jones sings "Its Not Unusual"? 6 of em are the same SERIES OPENING...another is a duet with Stevie Wonder ..with Stevie taking the lead and likewise with Aretha Franklin. Tom only performs it ONCE in this set during his "Concert" segment. Seems the "Expert" might benefit from viewing the DVDs he or she reviews.

This Is Tom Jones: Legendary Performers is a 3-DVD set of the best moments from Tom Jones trend-setting variety show on ABC from 1969 - 1971. Available for the first time on DVD, these shows spotlight such triple-threat (singer-dancer-actor) entertainers as Sammy Davis Jr. and Liza Minnelli, along with Jerry Lee Lewis, one of the greatest movers and shaker in all popular music. Jones shows his taste and versatility, going down home with Johnny Cash and uptown with Tony Bennett. And when Jones grabs the mic for the show-closing 'concert', fans will need a handkerchief to mop their brows. This Is Tom Jones: Legendary Performers is smokin' !
