TOM JONES "green green grass of home" B/W "promise her anything" 1966
"A" side....one of the greatest songe ever written IMO, and Tom's cover version is the best version by a country mile IMO
"B" side more uptempo, not a classic but still good
single reached #1 in the UK as it did in countless other countries...

"promise her anything" **
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0gzARnG5ho live perofrmance
and now, someone on the forum mentioned Bobby Bare last week...
so to whoever that was, and im thinking Lovely Linda here's his version of "green green grass of home"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMj8X7pSyTo live version
and i cant go by the 1970s version by Elvis Presley, which IMO, is second only to Tom Jones' version
