John Jones Music

From ESP Studios Buttonville, circa 1981.

It was a very special experience creating music with the Fairlight CMI.

A 1983 ESP Studios, Buttonville recording, featuring Karen Hendrix, Mark Baker and John Jones.

Mark liked my song, “Words”, but said it didn’t have a chorus. So we rocked one together with Karen!

Band – Fairlight CMI, JJ, Mark. All vocals Karen. Mark on lead acoustic guitar. Performed, programmed, recorded by John Jones.

In 1985, “Say You’ll Stay” was a top 10 single in Canada for Priscilla Wright. Produced by Jack Richardson.

Recently. ESP Studios, Buttonville, Ontario, Canada, alumni, Frank Watt, sent me a folder of tracks that were recorded in the studio in the 1980s.

One track was called “Blue Jays.” I had never forgotten the track, but I had forgotten working on it with Mike Bouyea and Dee Long!

Michael was a founding member of the Connecticut band “The Squires.” He wrote and sang their 1966 single “Going All the Way.”

Mike wrote, performed and produced, “We’ve Got the Blues Jays,” with Dee and the Fairlight CMI for the CHUM foundation.” Awesome!
