One for Jonah

Fairport Convention, Earl Okin & Ralph McTell

Live recording from the Half Moon Tribute concert

Limited Edition Enhanced CD

John 'Jonah' Jones, latterly stage manager and compere at Cropredy Music Festival, was well-loved by all who knew him. In March 2004, his friends staged a memorial gig at The half Moon pub in Putney, London. The gig featured Ralph McTell, Fairport Convention and Earl Okin.

The concert was recorded and has now been released as an enhanced audio and multimedia album to celebrate John's life. This is a limited hand numbered edition, produced with some of the profits of the concerts. All proceeds from the CD will be donated to Jonah's favourite charity, the National Playing Fields Association.
