Long Lost Suitcase is the 41st studio album released by Welsh singer Tom Jones, released on 9 October 2015. It is the third in a trilogy of albums, following 2010's Praise & Blame and Spirit in the Room in 2012. Like the previous two albums, it was produced by Ethan Johns.
This album comes as a CD in a jewel case with a 16-page booklet featuring rare photos from Jones' career.
Adrian Thrills, reviewing the album for the Daily Mail, gave it four stars, calling it "a triumphant homage to his musical roots". Andre Paine, reviewing for the Evening Standard also gave it four stars, stating "At 75, Jones’s volcanic vocal still sounds majestic on an album that maintains the artistic rejuvenation of recent years." Fiona Shepherd in The Scotsman rated it the same. Nathan Bevan, reviewing it for WalesOnline was also positive, while The Guardian's Dave Simspon gave it three stars, calling it "slightly uneven". Paddy Kehoe, for RTÉ, was less enthusiastic, giving it two stars.
The track "Take My Love (I Want To Give It)", originally recorded by Little Willie John in 1961, was scheduled for release as a single on 4 December.
