Arthur Jones (1940 – 1998)[1] was an American Free Jazz alto saxophonist known for his highly energetic but warm tones.[2]

Jones was born in Cleveland, USA, and played for several years in a Rock and Roll band. After discovering music by Ornette Coleman and Eric Dolphy, he started appearing on the New York scene, playing in Frank Wright's group, where he took part in the recording of Your Prayer (1967). He then also worked with Jacques Coursil. In 1968, he was a member of Sunny Murray's Acoustical Swing Unit, with which he went to Paris in 1969 and where he recorded two volumes of an album called Africanasia (part 1 and part 2) as the band leader with most of the musicians from the Art Ensemble of Chicago.[3] He also made numerous other recordings for BYG Actuel with Coursil, Archie Shepp, Sunny Murray, or Burton Greene. He died in New York City, USA.
