Bob Jones, mastering engineer, record collector, label owner and Welsh eccentric died in 2009. The young Jones came to London and got a job as an engineer with Decca Records. After returning from Madrid where he had worked for a Spanish record company, Bob started working for Pye Records, mastering tapes for the newly formed Charly Records, Ace Records among others. He moved on to CTS Studios in Wembley, mastering releases for Bear Family Records a.o. and confirming his reputation for quality. RCA also utilized Bob's skills in mastering on numerous Elvis releases, including the first two volumes of 'The Essential Elvis', with his contribution acknowledged on the album sleeves.

After CTS, Bob was asked by Ace boss Ted Carroll to become a founding member of Sound Mastering. There he continued mastering product for Ace as well as various other specialist labels such as Rockstar, Bear Family and Magnum Force. A great fan of Elvis Presley and Duane Eddy, he was privileged to master product by both artists.

Bob decided to launch his own record label - Detour Records. He spent considerable time ensuring that the sleeve, artwork, logo and notes had an authentic 50s feel. All of this contributed to a dozen or so memorable releases.

Bob Jones, was born on February 18, 1944. He died of cancer on April 12, 2009, aged 65

In memory of Bob Jones and in recognition of his contributions to Bear Family’s reputation in terms of sound quality, we are re-issuing several of Bob’s Detour albums, originally released on vinyl during the 1980s. First time on CD.

Bob Jones

Bob Jones, Mastering Engineer, Plattensammler, Labelbesitzer und walisischer Exzentriker starb 2009. Der junge Jones kam nach London und bekam einen Job als Ingenieur bei Decca Records. Nach seiner Rückkehr aus Madrid, wo er für eine spanische Plattenfirma gearbeitet hatte, begann Bob für Pye Records zu arbeiten, wo er u.a. für die neu gegründeten Charly Records und Ace Records arbeitete. Er wechselte zu den CTS Studios in Wembley, wo er u.a. Veröffentlichungen für Bear Family Records meisterte und seinen Ruf für Qualität bestätigte. RCA nutzte auch Bobs Fähigkeiten beim Mastering auf zahlreichen Elvis-Veröffentlichungen, darunter die ersten beiden Bände von'The Essential Elvis', wobei sein Beitrag auf den Albumcovern gewürdigt wurde.

Nach CTS wurde Bob von Ace-Chef Ted Carroll gebeten, Gründungsmitglied von Sound Mastering zu werden. Dort meisterte er weiterhin Produkte für Ace sowie verschiedene andere spezialisierte Labels wie Rockstar, Bear Family und Magnum Force. Als großer Fan von Elvis Presley und Duane Eddy hatte er das Privileg, das Produkt beider Künstler zu beherrschen.
