Along Came Jones is the 1965 debut album recorded by Welsh-born singer Tom Jones, which includes his massive hit single "It's Not Unusual". The album reached No. 11 on the UK Albums chart, where it stayed for a total of five weeks. Some of the record's tracks were covers while some were written specifically for Jones (like the Gordon Mills-penned "The Rose"). The album title is a possible reference to the song of the same name.

In June 1965, Parrot Records (in North America) issued an abridged, 12-track version of the album titled It's Not Unusual.
