RELEASE DATE & LIST YEAR

Release: 1970

Release: 1970Source checked

V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. The original Tom Jones studio single was released in 1970. The scoped original-recording and single evidence supplies the year; later album, anthology, concert and remix dates are separate. No album day is assigned to an earlier single.

The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.

Owner-supplied release annotations
Reported dates in 1970.html. Not independently established; neighboring dates can reflect album/single or regional differences.

Tom Jones - licensed original hit-recording metadata
The licensed anthology identifies the original solo recordings and individual release years: the three selected 1965 titles, Green Green Grass of Home in 1966, I'll Never Fall in Love Again in 1967, Delilah in 1968, Love Me Tonight and Without Love in 1969, Daughter of Darkness and I (Who Have Nothing) in 1970, and She's a Lady in 1971. Its 2000 package date and January placeholders are not first-release events. Original individual years are checked against the album and single sources where they differ.

I Who Have Nothing - original studio program
The original 1970 studio program includes Daughter of Darkness and I (Who Have Nothing). The anthology identifies the earlier same-year singles; the album dates do not replace those single contexts.
