Is he telling the 100% truth? Maybe, maybe not. He's been called out for stuff that never happened that he says did, but, hey... the cat lays down one HELL of an interview. In this one, he trashes the Beatles, reveals some of his knowledge about the JFK assassination, how tech exec Paul Allen is as good as Hendrix, and that time Marlon Brando slept with Richard Pryor.

 

Well worth reading when you have the time. 10/10

Haven't read it yet, but wanted to toss out there that I have heard for years about Mr. Jones' proclivity towards weaving fascinating, if fictional, stories.

That's one of the bad things about garnering a reputation as a liar - a person may never lie about anything ever again, but nothing they say will be taken at face value and no sane person will trust them.

Which is why people got a big shock when the Marlon Brando-Richard Pryor thing turned out to be true!
