My father is Kenny Jones, who started the band Victims of Pleasure with Gez Prior. I just want to note that VoP was started in Stamford Hill, not Clapham. Virginia was auditioned in Clapton, East London and joined the band.Mmoor 09:46, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

==Influences==
Once Virginia Astley emerged into the music mainstream, the music press published a number of articles about her. She named her influences as poetry and classical music and paid only lip service to rock. She was also interested in synthesisers as her father had introduced her to them. Though her music was original, one can hear strands of Debussy, Satie and Vaughan Williams in there. Benjamin Britten was another influence, especially his use of the War Poets.
Husband or brother-in-law?
editPete Townsend is mentioned as her husband in 1968 and her brother-in-law in 1982. Some explanation needed! MartinPoulter (talk) 01:32, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
