Help Yourself is the twelfth studio album by Welsh singer Tom Jones, released in November 1968 on Decca Records. The album included the title track which reached number 5 in the UK. The track topped the charts in Ireland, Germany, and spent three weeks at number on the Australian chart. Help Yourself peaked at number 4 in the UK and number 5 on the Billboard 200 in 1969. Reception Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes, "The infectious title track was a Top 40 hit and it helped make Help Yourself Tom Jones' first Top Ten album, but the record was weighed down by lackluster material, making the album his weakest set since A-tom-ic Jones."
