Reload is sexy, vibrant, lush, fun, an unprecedented pageant of thrills,
adventure, melodrama, seduction and all-around good time.


In 1988, pop conceptualists The Art of Noise and high-energy crooner Tom Jones
collaborated on a cover of Princes "Kiss." The single, a smash hit, turned
The Art of Noise into pop celebrities and gave Tom Jones a kitsch-but-hip cachet
no one (except, obviously, the perspicacious The Art of Noise) had yet imagined.

Their "Kiss" was simultaneously a high-camp pop explosion and a driven, loving
performance. The collaboration, sadly, was a one-hit-wonder affair. Subsequently,
The Art of Noise more or less vanished off the music radar and Tom Jones never
seemed to cash in on his newfound image... until his turn-of-the-century pop
extravaganza, Reload.

This album-length follow-up to "Kiss" may have been long in coming but theres no
question that it was worth every second of anticipation.

All but three of the 17 tracks on Reload follow the "Kiss" formula: Jones teams
with another pop artist to cover someone else's song in a performance both campy
and passionate. Mousse T. and Van Morrison bring their own songs to the duets and
"Looking Out My Window" is a Tom Jones composition featuring the James Taylor
Quartet.

One thing every track shares, however, is Tom Jones' exuberant love of
song, this album oozes infectious fun.

Reload opens with a spectacular rendition of the Talking Heads classic "Burning
Down the House."

Tom Jones doing David Byrne? Yes! Although the album features several of the
standards and oldies often found on cover albums (though they rarely sound this
fresh and exciting), Jones' daring and eclectic selection also includes songs by
the likes of Portishead, INXS, Fine Young Cannibals and Iggy Pop.

Reload celebrates Jones love of the pop song in all its incarnations, from jazz
and soul to rock and triphop, by showcasing compositions from each of the last
six decades (and one traditional).

Theres not a bad track on this set list, but there are, in addition to "Burning
Down the House" with the Cardigans, several outstanding gems.

Mousse T.s funky "Sexbomb" is exactly what the title says. The Pretenders help
Jones kick ass in a strangely moving version of Iggy Pops "Lust For Life."
The sweeping grandiosity of Portishead's "All Mine" (with Divine Comedy), the
aggressive catchiness of Fine Young Cannibals' "She Drives Me Crazy"
(with Zucchero), the ebulliently chaotic vocal interaction between Jones and
Cerys Matthews on Frank Loesser's "Baby, It's Cold Outside"... there is so much
to love about the performances on this album.
