Gold's Hall of Fame: Tom Jones

Sir Tom and the Stereophonics have collaborated in the past, with Kelly Jones's band recording a cover of Randy Newman's 'Mama Told Me Not To Come' for Sir Tom's 1999 duets album Reload.

The album sparked a massive commercial renaissance for Sir Tom, topping the UK album chart and going quadruple-platinum in the UK and becoming the biggest selling of his career.

Other highlights included covers of Talking Head's 'Burning Down The House' (recorded with The Cardigans), Lenny Kravitz's 'Are You Gonna Go My Way' (recorded with Robbie Williams), and new song 'Sex Bomb' (recorded with Mousse T.).

Sir Tom and Stereophonics have dueted live several times, including at the Teenage Cancer Trust 15th Anniversary Year Concert at the Royal Albert Hall in March 2015.
