Phil Jones

Phil Jones circa 1973 with Lord

Phil was born in Manchester, England and came to New Zealand around the age of nine.  He has been involved in a large number of very successful Christchurch-based groups over the decades of the 60s, 70s and 80s, and his career is chronologised here by way of pictures from within the various groups he played in.  Much respect.
