Sam St. John | An Interview with the Legendary Tommy James

For this latest trip around the turntable, Sam St. John (aka Americana Sam) had the great fortune of sitting down with legendary singer, songwriter and PLATINUM selling artist Tommy James. 

In this chat, they discuss his long historic career with Tommy James and the Shondells and iconic hits like "Mony, Mony", "Crimson and Clover", and "I Think We're Alone Now"; songs that have been covered from other legendary artists ranging from Billy Idol, Prince, Dolly Parton, and even Tiffany.

Besides regular touring, Tommy has hosted the radio show "Gettin' Together with Tommy James" on SiriusXM 60s Gold (channel 73) for eight years and counting, where he shares stories about songs and artists from the 60s and beyond including his own experiences as a hitmaker, touring, new projects and so much more. The conversation even touches on the mafia-ran Roulette Records, featured in his book "Me, The Mob, and The Music".
