1979 / 80 ?
Peter Jones - a musical genius, years ahead of his time. Struggling with the most basic of
equipment (including his legendary home-made guitar and biscuit-tin bass-drum) he managed to produce
often sublime results irrespective of genre. Notable examples of his work include 'The Men in Black' (spooky), 'Dear Friend' (poignant), Scooby Doo (punky),
and the immortal 'Nigel's Got a Crispy Pillow'.
Also famed for his correspondence in
Record Mirror, he was never afraid to mercilessly plug his own material. Or indeed
that of anyone he knew... |
