Paul Jones - Crucifix In a Horseshow

Paul Jones was a certified pop star in the UK in the mid 60's as lead singer with Manfred Mann and then briefly as a solo artist following his role as Steven Shorter in the great youth culture film Privilege in 1966. After a his initial solo success his career began a slow and steady decline to where at a point in the late 60's some of his records were released only in Sweden. However, Jones' had talent to burn, possessing a superb voice that sounded at times like both David Bowie and Peter Hammill. Interestingly, Jones was once asked to be lead singer for The Rolling Stones prior to Mick Jagger joining.
