This man is the reason I ever picked up a (Fender Jazz) Bass. I met him in 1994, giving me the opportunity to tell him this and thank him for it. He is the humblest, most gracious person I have ever encountered.The only thing better than his musicianship is his humanity. Thank you, JPJ, for being!

There is no hyperbole in this statement....Led Zeppelin consisted of four ground breaking revolutionary musical virtuosos. Given that indisputable fact, John Paul Jones is arguably the most gifted all around musician. That's quite an honor when you're talking about the most astonishingly talented band that Rock ever produced.

What a gentleman he is! In '86, I was in WH Smith (UK newsagents), browsing magazines. I turned around, and John Paul Jones was just behind me, doing the same. I don't think anyone else in the vicinity recognized him. Shyness stopped me saying Hello, but I'm glad it did - who wants to be interrupted while shopping? You can tell from this interview that JPJ doesn't see himself as a celebrity or star, just a working musician / writer / producer. One of the best music interviews I've seen. Thank you. š„

One of the things that I admire most about Zeppelin is that they were a band, in the truest sense of the word. When Bonham died, the rest of the band knew that Zeppelin was done. It appears as if success, fortune, fame were secondary to them. It was all about the music that they were making. "John Bonham wasn't the drummer of Led Zeppelin; he was 1/4 of Led Zeppelin"

I always thought John Paul was the secret weapon of the band, he covered a fair bit of musical territory and not just with the bass. I saw them supporting The Who in the US on a early tour, then I saw them at the Bath Festival in England eighteen months later in 1970 and they obliterated everyone else. Great interview by the young man. Thank you.

I want him to be my neighbor and say "good morning" to me every day.
