I was thinking about him and his contributions to Led Zepplin last night. He played the right thing at the right time. Great player and musician

I knew he did the orchestral arrangements for REM but I did not know he produced The Butthole Surfers.

Independent Worm Saloon was one of my favorite albums back then. It was a few years before I realized that the producer was actually that John Paul Jones.

He was the glue that held Zepp together for me. I think he allowed the band to expand and evolve while many other Brit blues bands got stale and burned out. MVP for sure.

In Through the Out Door has always been one of my favorite LZ albums I think mostly because it was released while I was in HS and I was discovering a lot of this music ... I found out much later on that it was really a Jones / Plant album. Something the article doesn't discuss. I love the comments on Black Dog. OK, you will have to forgive me for posting a sloppy live performance but this is from a few years ago. There is a rock camp out here for adults (essentially pay to play) ... 4 rehearsals and then a gig most often with people you have never played with before. I always wanted to do Black Dog and I will say it took a tremendous amount of concentration, feels like the time is turning around throughout the song. This is the only time I've ever played the song out live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mT_dCvyiPDg

She IS a trip! Her album subjects are certainly controversial too. JPJ just rocks!

Jones was Micky Most's musical director. He did arrangements and played on most productions (although rarely bass). Most significantly, he was in charge of hiring session players and it was in that capacity that he brought Page onto the roster and eventually suggested they form a band.

I agree with all the sentiments regarding John Paul Jones, a superb musician both technically and aesthetically.
In a similar vein, I'd argue the same role was adopted by Geezer Butler in Black Sabbath, Jack Bruce in Cream and John Entwistle in The Who. All very proficient and highly accomplished bassists who knew just what to play to complement the sound.
When you think about it, these four guys (and others of course - Lemmy anyone?) had to perform double duty in the rhythm section - especially live - as each band only had one 'permanent' guitarist. You notice in a lot of Sabbath songs that when Tony Iommi is taking a solo, Geezer actually plays a more 'simple' bass part to anchor down the rhythm and leave room for the lead work.

Yep, and I'll add Andy Fraser from Free to that list.
