Jimmy,

Here's a long-distance "Happy Birthday" to you from Japan.

Happy Birthday Jimmy, I hope it has been a good one and you are looking forward to your new year.

Many Happy Returns Jimmy J.   

Happy Birthday Jimmy!

Happy Birthday (belatedly) from Chicagoland. I'm looking forward to seeing you with JT next year in Chicago. I'm just starting to get active with some close friends again after 2 months of no contact musically.

Hope you had a good day!

Happy Birthday!

Happy belated Cake Day!

Happy belated birthday, hope you had a great day! 

Thanks everybody.  I've asked my wife the musical question, and she assures me that she will still feed me.

Happy birthday Jimmy! Have a blast!

Gary Husband has posted another lockdown video featuring Jimmy and Steve Hunt. I've posted a link in the 'what are you listening to' thread in miscellaneous.  Well worth watching.

Wow, thanks for posting that - the bass solo is amazing and I love Gary Husband's playing. Here's the link so people can just watch from here:

That video is AMAZING. I concur, thanks for posting it !!! I always trip how Steve Hunt and I are the same age, yet I will NEVER understand how he does it. It's beyond my comprehension. The solo lines that sounded nearly identical to the Synth Axe AND Allan's style. It was such a beautiful sentiment ; Carry On.


It's SO hard not seeing Allan there. Jimmy's solos NEVER EVER cease to amaze me. They are all unpredictable, and it makes me jump out of my seat every time, yell. "NO WAY" , rewind it and watch it again. And again. (admit it guys, I'm not the only one !) This is as close to hearing SAND 2 or PUD WUD 2 as I will ever get.


Of course, Gary's drums are as equally beautiful, melodic, tribal, and a complete mystery to me.


The question I always have to Jimmy and all the guys - Is it hard to play ? I would NEVER be able to play that if my life depended on it even if there was a gun to my head. Well, I'd be really nervous about the gun, so ya. But it sounds so perfect. Like it's been played a thousand times. I don't even know where the one is at some points. I just know it sounds wonderful to me like a gift from God made for me. It makes me emotional. I guess that's the goal...
