Led Zeppelin's great bass player and keyboardist John Paul Jones was born 60 years ago today. Happy Birthday to the greatest bass player in music history. :birthday: :rock:

Probably the most underrated musician in rock. Jonesy was the glue that held Led Zeppelin together - watch any Led Zeppelin live video and without a doubt, Jonesy is the best musician. Very tight and solid.

Because he was content to not put himself out in front like Page and Plant, he never got the level of fan adulation Page and Plant got. He is a talented songwriter, bassist, keyboard player and arranger. And he was a wondefully dry wit.

Happy Birthday, Jonesy!;)
