Yes, THAT Tommy James, as in “Tommy James and the Shondells…..as in ”Crimson and Clover”…”Mony Mony”…”I Think We’re Alone Now”, and dozens more.
For a while, Tommy James and the Shondells were the most successful singles artists in the world. Even more impressive was Tommy’s ability to cross the chasm from lighthearted pop music to the more serious fare of ‘album rock’. In recent times, he continues to tour and record, including an excellent new album entitled “Hold the Fire,” and an upcoming reunion disk with the Shondells.
He’s had one heck of a career, and he’s also one heck of a nice guy. Heidy and I had a wonderful time talking with him, and we are pleased and proud to share this hour of music and conversation with our listeners, and with Tommy’s fans.
