Engelbert Humperdinck – His Greatest Hits $4.20 Engelbert Humperdinck, who at the circa 1968 height of his career shared a manager with fellow hunk Tom Jones, has never enjoyed the campy appreciation that has come to Jones in recent years–mostly because he’s way too earnest compared to the teasingly all-man singer of “What’s New Pussycat” and “She’s a Lady.” Humperdinck certainly deserves a place on some space-age bachelor’s mix tape with the …
