I now have three names I can work on.
So, John Perry Jones could be a relative of Elias Phillips Jones (1865–1937), father of Lewis Blount Jones (1917–2009) and grandfather of Brian Jones?
Btw: I can't see that picture from the passenger list too and maybe it's better to remove the uninvolved names of the passenger list due to privacy reasons. Let them rest in peace.

I found a clear piece of information (person) that fits the search track we're on, but (again privacy protection for the time being) like to forward it to you through another channel.

Hi Irix,
We are reaching a sensitive stage. I will temporarily add my email address under my alias, so we can communicate in such a way that nobody get "hurt". When 2000LYFH is online I'll do the same for him. If you don't like it, let me know.

OK......enough is enough.......I apologise to all who are bored rigid by this thread.......I wish I had never started it as it.
It is now quite clear that when Georgie48 made his original claim that Lennon knew Jones before the Stones and Beatles had formed......he was making it up and taking the piss.......he had at that time no facts to support his statement.
Therefore I now disassociate myself from this thread !

I thought it was basically spectorized emotional bullshit that would have been better to have been kept in the psychoanalyst's office instead of sullying the Beatles name with it and its many nasty implications. Hopefully the new version strips away some of the tedious wall of sound nonsense that muddied up the acoustics so on this release.

There wasn't much of a Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" on this record. I think he really only added a few bricks (if any) this time, and those little touches deftly enhanced the work and for once didn't scream PHIL SPECTOR PRODUCTION!
I heard a few cuts of what sounded like early takes on Chris Carter's Breakfast With The Beatles radio show last Sunday, and they underscored what a great contribution Phil made to the final product.

It's not a Beatles record. He's not sullying anything. It's a John Lennon record.A And it's probably the most important album of the 70s.
