  Jonathan King - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jonathan King is the stage name of Kenneth George King (born December 6, 1944), a wealthy pop music impresario who in 2001 received a seven year prison sentence for four indecent assaults and two more serious sexual offences on schoolboys aged 14 and 15.
King usually performed under pseudonyms, such as 'Shag', 'St Cecilia', 'Bubblerock', '100 Tons and a Feather', although in 1975 a rendition under his own name of Una Paloma Blanca was named Record of the Year.
King still protests his innocence and he says he is confident that he will be cleared on appeal.

King later showed his acumen as a writer and producer by taking the band Hedgehoppers Anonymous [+] in hand and producing the poppish folk protest song "It's Good News Week," which was a Top Five hit in England and brushed the U.S. charts at number 50.
King left Decca in 1970 and two years later -- after an interim period producing a series of minor British hits for bands like the Weathermen, the Piglets, and St. Cecilia, which were often King working pseudonymously -- he formed his own UK Records label, which was distributed by Decca.
King returned to Decca Records in the 1970s, but was unable to reverse the company's gradual decline, which resulted in its sale at the very end of the decade to Polygram Records.

 Guardian Unlimited | Weekend | The fall of a pop impresario
Jonathan has always told me about his good relationship with the police, how kind they were to him during his arrest, and he looks a little crestfallen at their evident withdrawal of affection.
One of King's friends later suggests to me that it was his look - the big nose, the glasses, the weird lop-sided grin - that determined this career path, as if he somehow came to realise that it was his aesthetic destiny to play the clown.
King drove me home on a couple of occasions before he eventually assaulted me. The first assault occurred at a car park, which was situated on the left-hand side of the Old Woking Road.

Jonathan is first mentioned in Bible History after his father's accession as Israel's first human king (1 Samuel 13:1-2).
Jonathan and Saul were first buried at Jabesh-Gilead after the Philistines abused the bodies (1 Samuel 31:8-13), but their remains were later removed and buried in Zelah, in Benjamin (2 Samuel 21:12-14).

 Jonathan King Versus Michelangelo
Michelangelo, the Beatles and Oscar Wilde were all cited as moral witnesses for the defence by pop producer Jonathan King on his release from Maidstone prison on Tuesday, after serving three-and-a-half years of a seven-year jail sentence for abusing boys.
However, it is less easy to agree with King’s decision to promote his single, and at the same time implicitly defend the crimes for which he was convicted, by bandying about these famous names.
King seeks to normalise his actions, but in doing so he does a great disservice to other gay men who for years have had to put up with society’s assumptions that there is a grey area between homosexuality and pederasty.

 Dead Sea Scrolls -- King Jon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The King Jonathan mentioned in this text can be none other than Alexander Jannaeus, a monarch of the Hasmonean dynasty who ruled Judea from 103 to 76 B.C.E. The discovery of a prayer for the welfare of a Hasmonean king among the Qumran texts is unexpected because the community may have vehemently opposed the Hasmoneans.
However, scholars are exploring the possibility that Jonathan-Jannaeus, unlike the other Hasmonean rulers, was favored by the Dead Sea community, at least during certain periods, and may explain the prayer's inclusion in the Dead Sea materials.
The second, columns B and C, bear a prayer for the welfare of King Jonathan and his kingdom.

 David laments Saul and Jonathan; David king of Judah; Ishbosheth king of Israel; War between them
Recall how Jonathan deeply loved David, and David evidently loved Jonathan nearly as much in return: "The soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul" (1 Samuel 18:1; see also 18:3; 20:17; 19:1).
Sad to say, there are those who have perversely twisted Jonathan's love for David expressed in 2 Samuel 1:26—"surpassing the love of women"—to be what God would consider an abomination.
And Jonathan evidently married because he had at least one child—Mephibosheth (see 2 Samuel 4:4).

 Jonathan King - Nostalgia Central   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Now best known for his extra-curricular activities with kiddies, former TV presenter and newspaper columnist Jonathan King was once a one-man pop industry in the UK.
In December, King was in the British charts twice - once as himself with Hooked On A Feeling, and also at Number 3 as the creative force behind The Piglets' Johnny Reggae, a cod-Caribbean knees-up featuring TV actress Adrienne Posta on chirpy cockney lead vocals.
Although Jonathan King continued to have deliberately daft hits under questionable pseudonyms - One Hundred Ton and A Feather Shag, Athlete's Foot, Bubblerock, Father Abraphart and so on - when he started his own label in 1972, UK Records, his roster possessed considerable credibility - among others, 10cc, The Kursaal Flyers and Kevin Johnson.
