This is an absolute joy of a gig from John Paul Jones, who appeared at the Big Ears Music Festival in Knoxville, TN on March 22, 2024. He played all three days of the event. One night with Sons of Chipotle, one night solo (which is what I'm playing), and one night with Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth. Our boy gets around.
I play a few tracks from his solo set, an isolated bass rendition of Ramble On (just a couple of minutes long), Since I've Been Loving You on the grand piano, an already legendary performance of Your Time is Gonna Come on a 1928 Wurlitzer organ, and a haunting, elegiac Down to the River to Pray, off of his solo album Zooma.
This is a master class in virtuosity and humility. He's a genius and a very lovely man, who completely holds the torch for Led Zeppelin magick in this moment. Enjoy.
