Tom Jones left emotional in attempt to sing song for late wife Linda ‘Jogs my memory’

In the same chat with NME, Tom said Bill Haley and His Comets’ See You Later, Alligator is a song he and Linda used to dance to. 

“I used to jive to this song with my wife when we were teenagers,” he revealed.

“We would go to a dance hall called The Ranch. It was an old Nissen hut used by American soldiers during the war – a lot of them were billeted in south Wales before the Normandy landings.

“And then after the war, when the Americans went home, these huts were still standing so they turned them into dance halls and boys’ clubs.”
