Apparently the BBC has confirmed that Tom Jones will be the star at the 'Forever Elvis' Concert in Hyde Park.
From Tom's point of view it is a shrewd move. His latest album is a gospel one and he is just about to release a single from it - 'Run On' - the Elvis track. His audience, being mainy an Elvis one, will favour gospel and it could do him a lot of good chartwise.
Of course he was a friend of Elvis' and knew Priscilla well so I suspect he will look forward to appearing.
The TCB Band were at the BBC this week-end going through the final details. Could be interesting if they back Jones.
He is also appearing at 'The Concert For Heroes' at Twickenham on the same day. Perhaps he will bring Robbie Williams with him.
Best.
