Joe Jones
Joe Jones:, or ‘Sharper’s Joe’ - after his father, Sharper Jones - (or even ‘Joe Cooper’ as I heard him addressed on one occasion) and his wife Lena Jones were living in an old caravan on a site at St Mary Cray, Kent. Whenever I called, Joe would be squatting over an outdoor fire, no matter whatever the weather, and all of my recordings were made outdoors.
