Tom Jones Shines at Starlite in Marbella
Tom Jones, also known as the ‘Tiger of Wales’, put on a spectacular show at Starlite in Marbella last night. His performance at the Nagüeles quarry was a display of talent and charisma that left the audience in awe. Despite being 84 years old, Jones proved that age is just a number with a high-energy performance on his Ages & Stages Tour.
Opening Act: A Nostalgic Journey
Jones kicked off the show with a solo performance of I’m Growing Old, accompanied only by a pianist. He then greeted the crowd with a promise of a good time before launching into Not Dark Yet. Dressed in a floral shirt, it wasn’t long before he performed one of his most famous songs, It’s Not Unusual. This song, popularized in the 90s and known for its association with the dance of Carlton Banks from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, was given a jazz and bossa nova twist that delighted the audience.
Reminiscing the Past and Celebrating the Present
Throughout the concert, Jones shared anecdotes about his songs and career, which spans over 60 years. He proudly stated that he is the oldest person in Britain to have a number one hit. He also showcased his renowned sensuality with a bluesy rendition of ‘Sexbomb’, which had the audience of all ages on their feet. The same response was elicited later with You Can Leave Your Hat On.
A Tribute to Elvis Presley
Jones performed a series of his hits including What’s New Pussycat, One More Cup of Coffee, Green Grass of Home, Across the Borderline and Tower of Song. One of the highlights was his performance of Delilah, one of his greatest hits. The concert concluded with a powerful rendition of Johnny B. Goode, a nod to Elvis Presley who was reportedly one of Jones’ biggest fans.
