We have a nice surprise tonight...
I have found, what has to be one of the earliest performance's of Jimmy, pre-dating even this performance;
with Daver. It's Jimmy playing with the oft mentioned Eddie Korosa on "Eddie Korosa's Polka Party" waaaaaay back in 1982:
"LETS DANCE!!!!"
Art for art's sake
ReplyDeleteHa
ReplyDeleteIndeed PP, no art is more pure than Polka.
ReplyDeleteTrademark JC hi hat accents at 1:23 and 2:20. Tssst!
ReplyDeleteAre you sure this is Jimmy? We don't get any closeups but I don't really see a physical resemblance other than the black hair.
ReplyDeleteYeah, pretty much certain. Looks just like jimmy when he was.young > http://picasaweb.google.com/m/viewer#album/drevpile/5504306882771469729 sorry about the quality of the yearbook pic, posting from my phone you see. Further, as I said, the date fits for when he said he played with them.
ReplyDeleteI think I could be well wrong on this, but I think you see him playing the exact same kit in viewphoria... well for sure, if its not the exact same kit, it is the same roto-tom configuration...
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, C.
ReplyDeleteThis is pure gold! I'm happy you found this...it gives me soemthing to do other than be bored all day. (:
ReplyDeleteThanks Drevpile!
