Wow, I can't believe I just found this! Listening to his stories from his beginning, the things I've learned! I've listened to Manfred Mann since junior high! But hearing Paul Jones in this interview, just amazing! 👍🎶
Hi Paul,great interview. Many years ago I was at St Johns College in Southsea. I remember hearing music being played the building called St Ann's. Looking through the history of SJC. I found a section for famous pupils - Mike Hugg It all fell into place ! Fond memories of yourself dedicating your show to the memory of my late wife Sue in 2009 at Stevenage. Regards Robin Howes

Paul had a great weekly Blues show on BBC Radio 2 that I really used to enjoy listening to… his knowledge of the Blues is encyclopaedic & apart from the great music he played there were many interesting interviews with musicians. Unfortunately the BBC decided he was too ‘male, pale, and stale’ for the audience they wanted to attract - never mind the loyal (probably older) audience Paul had, so he was out & Cerys Matthews was in. I gave her show a couple of listens but it wasn’t a patch on Paul’s programme, so that was me finished with Radio 2 - which I guess the BBC would see as mission accomplished as at 73 I’m also ‘male, pale & stale’!
I wish I could describe the impact Mr. Jones has had on my life as a listener of music. Yes, I go back to the MM days, but the album cuts were out of this world! Hubble Bubble and Without You probably rank at the top of my list. Mann Made (in stereo) was the best album I've ever listened to (over and over). Thanks for the interview, and thanks for the music. Will seek out his latest blues CD right away.
Wow paul looks in fantastic health. Great musician. He should of did more acting though, he was always good in whatever he stared in. Paul was fantastic in the sweeney!
