      Tom Jones got a bad rap early on. Many of us who like rock didn't like his image at 1st. He did grow on us as time went on and he got his accolades. At 1st, for me, he came on as to clean cut looking for the music he was singing when he sang rock songs. His look fit the ballads he sang perfectly I thought. And Elvis was the man and I thought overshadowed Tom Jones's talent.
