About Mick Jones (The Clash guitarist)
Michael Geoffrey Jones is a British musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer best known as co-founder and lead guitarist of punk rock band the Clash, until his dismissal by frontman Joe Strummer in 1983. In 1984, he formed Big Audio Dynamite with Don Letts. Jones has played with the band Carbon/Silicon along with Tony James since 2002 and was part of the Gorillaz live band for a world tour in 2010. In late 2011, Jones collaborated with Pete Wylie and members of the Farm to form the Justice Tonight Band. Though he is listed in the credits of the band's 1984 debut studio album, All the Rage, as a member, Jones left General Public part way through the recording process and was replaced by Kevin White. A further studio album, Entering a New Ride, was recorded in 1997, but was only released on the internet because of a disagreement with Radioactive Records, their then record label.
