Biography
The Freddy Jones Music group are roots-rock specialists within the tradition of groupings like Small Feat, the Dave Matthews Music group as well as the Allman Brothers Music group. Having developed in Chicago, the group does not have any particular aversion to blues, and far of their audio is solid blues rock and roll. The group’s third record for Nashville-based Capricorn Information, North Ave. Wake-Up Contact, is approximately their encounters on the highway, criss-crossing the united states in their truck, helping their two previous produces for Capricorn, Looking forward to the night time, (1993) and their self-titled debut, The Freddy Jones Music group (1993), a repackaged edition from the group’s separately released record. Lucid implemented in 1997, and 2 yrs later they came back with Mile Great Live. The group includes Marty Lloyd, vocals and classical guitar, Wayne Healy, vocals and electric guitar, Jim Bonaccorsi, bass, Ron Bonaccorsi, electric guitar and vocals, and Simon Horrocks, drums. Some of the music on North Ave. Wake-Up Contact concentrate on the band’s encounters on the highway, some tracks on their previous releases explore the greater traditional love earned and lost styles. The band’s audio at times can be similar to the Allman Brothers, plus they have a distinctive two acoustic guitar sound that’s augmented by some influenced slip playing and pumping Hammond body organ, furthering the assessment.

It's the most mad I had ever gotten at one of these movies. Usually I don't get that upset at them, seeing how I'm writing and taking notes when I'm watching them, but that one truly was punishment."
For his web show, Midnight Screenings (2011), he nearly walked out of a screening of A Good Day to Die Hard (2013), stating "This is one of the worst sequels I've ever seen.

I think a film critic can be a good film maker, I don't see why not. I think if a critic makes a movie, they should make a movie that they themselves want to see. That's what I did. Whether they were any good is debatable, but they're what I wanted to see at the time. |

How is it that studios are so willing to back the "R" rated raunchy comedy, yet become completely neutered when it comes to slasher films? The PG-13 slasher film is the same thing as releasing a porn without sex, or a comedy without the funny parts. It makes no sense and people should not support that. |

[on Cars 2 (2011)] When you got a movie where Larry the Cable Guy has the most screen time in a movie with voices of Bruce Campbell and Franco Nero ... then, you've got some problems. |
