From 1969: Tom Sings A Wonderful, Inspiring Song For This Season When He Returns To Wales
Thursday, December 24th, 2009
Today, on TJI, Tom returns home to the Rhondda Valley, to Pontypridd, for his 1969 Christmas Special on the BBC. There, he talks a bit about home, visits some favorite places — and those ever-popular Welsh sheep — and, then, sings a wonderful song with some gifted friends.
You can watch the it in the TJI.com Video Library.
Wishing each of you a wonderful holiday season from TJI. Be sure to come back tomorrow to read a message Tom sent to his fans…..in 1980.
