I met Jimmie in 1966 backstage at a battle of the bands thing that Vox and American Airlines did. This was a national contest that had regional qualifiers all over the country and culminated in a coliseum three live stage showdown at Dallas Texas. The national winner was awarded a recording contract and studio time. I was a founding member of a West Texas garage band called "The Living End" and Jimmy was a member of "The Chessmen" I believe. Just a skinny little kid that sat in the dressing room constantly playing his black Les Paul if my memory is correct. He was a highly regarded blues rocker back then that could play the Jeff Beck Yardbirds stuff like it was his own. Yes folks, he can, he has, he is...... The stuff I see from him today is pale by comparison.
Those were the days my friend........
