Enjoy this first song and video from Joey’s new album that I co-produced in Canada and in London at Abbey Road Studios. Steve Sidwell wrote the brilliant arrangements and conducts the orchestra. I was standing fifteen feet away, in awe!

My parents – Dr. John and Mrs. Dorothy Jones
Over the past couple of weeks I have been overwhelmed remembering the time I spent working with Duran Duran (John, Nick, Simon, Warren & Sterling). Between 1988 and 1995 we recorded three albums together, starting with “Liberty” and ending with “Thank You”.
Today marks the 25th (Silver) Anniversary of the second L.P., the “Wedding Album”; no doubt our greatest achievement!
This week I answered some new questions about the Wedding Album for duranduran.rocks
Five years ago Duran Duran remembered the album. Here is my post from 2013 – It was 20 Years ago Today

With the Wedding Album turning 25 on Sunday the 11th, I wondered what I was doing on February 9, 1993. Apparently, that was the day I wrote and recorded Turning Me Inside Out!
Here is the un-official video, with the Wedding Album’s Steve Ferrone, and Leeza Hoffman, filmed at the old Griffith Park Zoo in 1998.

The song we made from loops, about the box we all want to check!
A favorite production of mine from the “Wedding” album, with three guitar players!
