Hugh Jones (producer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hugh Jones is a British record producer with many important post-punk albums to his credit.

[edit] Career

Jones made a name early in the 1980s with a jangly sound that aged better than many of his contemporaries' production styles. Though many of his early clients were big name acts -- Echo and the Bunnymen, The Sound, Modern English, and The Damned, for example -- his recent production credits have been more esoteric, though many admire his work with The Charlatans and Kitchens of Distinction. He chiefly records British acts.
