Tom Jones: Close Up By Lucy Ellis & Bryony Sutherland (HARDCOVER)

Tom Jones: Close Up By Lucy Ellis & Bryony Sutherland (HARDCOVER)

As the indestructible Jones hits 60, this superb biography finally separates truth from myth and reveals the flesh-and-blood man behind the legend.
With over 70 interviews from friends, family and colleagues, 'Close Up' offers a minutely-researched chronology of Jones' 40-year career as well as details of his odd life of deep family ties and unbridled sexual promiscuity.
From Las Vegas and L.A. to London and South Wales, the authors have tracked down those who knew the real Tom Jones from early childhood to the days of legendary stardom, including:
- Members of his early backing group The Squires
- PR Chris Hutchins
- DJ Jimmy Savile
- Songwriter Les Reed
- Collaborator Anne Dudley
- Producer Trevor Horn

'Close Up' surpasses all other attempts to chronicle the life of a unique star who has been notoriously unforthcoming about himself. It also offers a fascinating insight into half a century of pop, spanning the Fifties pubs of South Wales, the glitzy resort hotels of Eighties Vegas and a triumphant period of personal reinvention for a whole new generation of fans at the start of the 21st century.
Includes 24 pages of superb photographs.
