May Birthdays 
From Rolling Stone article:
Released a 1964 solo single, "Baja," written by Lee Hazlewood and produced by Andrew Loog Oldham.
One of the major trends among popular artists in England in the early 1960s was to change one's name to something a little bit more eye-grabbing. Thus, Richard Starkey became Ringo Starr and Alan Caldwell became Rory Storm. In 1964, John Baldwin entered the studio with Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham to cut his first single, "Baja," a song penned by country/pop singer Lee Hazlewood. The song itself is a pretty nondescript instrumental propelled by woody-sounding guitar, but the session's implications were enormous. Going to market, Oldham was convinced his young charge's birth name just wasn't going to cut it, and thus rechristened him John Paul Jones. As Jones remembered, Oldham got the name from a "movie poster for John Paul Jones the American." The rest is history.
