Man had four UK top 40 albums in the 1970s and were admired by Frank Zappa.^[3]

Jones was born in the Welsh town of Merthyr Tydfil.^[4] He started playing guitar in the late 1950s when he was inspired by rock and roll artists. Jones originally played drums until he changed to guitar when he was thirteen.^[5] His first guitar, a Höfner club 40, was given to him by his parents. His father, George, played Hawaiian guitar and taught him how to play guitar.^[4] Jones' first job was as a hairdresser.^[2]

Micky met his wife, Jenny, at United Artists Records in the 1970s. They had a son, George, born in 1982.^[4] George followed in his fathers footsteps and was in Man from 2002 to 2008.

Jones was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2002 and left the band while he had treatment.^[6][4] Micky briefly came back in 2004—2005 but had to leave after only a few months when his health deteriorated more. He died at a carehome in Swansea on 16 March 2010 aged 63.^[6][2][3]
