I had some time to browse iTunes and came across this duet
of Tom Jones with Portishead. (No, I can't explain why I was browsing Tom Jones tunes. Just accept it, okay?)
My friend Tammi in the comments tells me Portishead is an acquired taste. Looks like it's at taste Tom Jones has acquired and vice versa. The sample I heard on iTunes was pretty good and not as much of a mind-blower as you'd think.

:D Thanks for the mention.
ReplyDeleteTom Jones and Portishead, huh? Sounds interesting. Gotta check it out. Thanks for posting that!
You're welcome. Always glad when you drop by. Knew this would be a head scratcher. Tom Jones was iTunes featured artist and I was actually looking for his take on Prince's Kiss when I came across this. Didn't find Kiss but found his cover of The Talking Heads' Burning Down The House. Sure, laugh, but the guy can wail.
