12 February 2009

The 'Sex Bomb' singer, who last played the Somerset event in 1992 has revaled that he'd "love" to return to Worthy Farm.

Speaking to The London Paper, Jones said: "I'd love to perform there again and if the timing was right, I'd be there. I last appeared at Glastonbury in the early '90s and it was fantastic. Even the weather was good. The sun was shining and I had a ball.

"I remember two guys in the crowd had this big banner up on a pole and it just said, 'Tom fucking Jones'. I thought it would make a great T-shirt."

The Welsh crooner would fit the bill in the traditional Sunday afternoon slot for iconic stars, which has included Leonard Cohen, Shirley Bassey and Brian Wilson in recent years.

Other names rumoured to be performing the UK's Best Major Festival includes Coldplay, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young and Blur.
