Aquamarine Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Apparently it is out of print in the US, but it can also be downloaded from Amazon for $6.90. Which I just did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ro_a Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Get it, you won't regret it! Some wonderful Jimmy guitar and you would be hard to go wrong with Stephen's voice. I did search YouTube yesterday to see if anyone had posted any of the 3 numbers he plays on, but sadly no luck. I'm glad y'all brought this up. I'd heard of and forgotten it. There was some problem with the promo effort is my vague memory. This is around the time of Southern Cross, no? It's this and the Harper I've left to discover. Did we mention the Jimmy solo on that Rolling Stones tune in 1986? The first few notes are rippin' and then he takes an energy sapping B string bender detour.

Evster2012 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 The Harper album Whatever Happened to Jugula? I'd highly recommend checking it out. Fantastic record. I get up and I walk across the room I get to the door - I've been there before Wondering what I got up for When all of a certain I remember What I was going to say to you Standing there watching my member Hanging there squirting the loo I'm really stoned I'm really stoned Permanently out my bone I'm really stoned I sit down on the phone I get the urge To dump yesterday, flush it away I hope the force is still with me When sure enough the door flies off it's hinges And there stands P.C. Bill Identikit Saying 'I've got trouble finding where I'm going 'Coz my backside is very badly lit 'Hello, hello, hello 'My bloody head no longer seems to fit 'Hello, hello, hello 'And you're under arrest... ...and...'ello?' I'm really stoned I'm really stoned Permanently out my bone I'm really stoned So come on, let go Let your feelings show There's something inside you The person beside you really needs to know Come on, change your mind You never know what you might find Break out the rizlas And roll up a place to unwind Well you can bust me once You can bust me twice But you'd have to top me To finally stop me from loading my dice 'Coz I'm really stoned I'm really stoned Permanently out my bone I'm really stoned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBJ Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Jimmy's current activity is not much different than say: Paul Mccartney Ringo Star Paul Rodgers Jeff Beck Van halen David Lee Roth Sammy Hager (until very recently) And many many others his age that have not done a lot in the past few years. When your that age there are a lot of reasons not to be continuously involved in things. Robert Plant is perhaps the exception to that rule. He is one the few that have been continuously out there.

Reggie29 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Jimmy's current activity is not much different than say: Paul McCartney - Since The Beatles he has been very consistent with Wings and numerous solo tours for the last thirty years. Ringo Starr - Not much but toured with The All Stars Paul Rodgers - Since Free he has been with Bad Co., The Firm with Jimmy, Queen and now back with bad Co. Jeff Beck - Played consistently over the years with Jam Hammer, Rod Stewart and solo. The above are music legends, as for Van Halen, David Lee Roth and Sammy Hager et al, not in the same league IMO. And many many others his age that have not done a lot in the past few years. When your that age there are a lot of reasons not to be continuously involved in things. Robert Plant is perhaps the exception to that rule. He is one the few that have been continuously out there. Age has nothing to do with it. Interestingly blues players have no problem playing into their old age, BB King and Taj Mahal cases in point. There are many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanelectroGod Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Maybe off topic a wee bit, but having seen several of the '98 P/P shows, Jimmy seemed more relaxed, and spot-on. I really think he was happy with WIC, and the working environment of the tour( back to a 4 piece for the most part). It just seems that Jimmy can't move on. It's a pity that he hasn't found anything else to spark his fire. Today I pulled out a disc of some stuff he did post '98. I have to admit, I would have loved to see where "Domino" could have went with Robert singing over that pure Jimmy nasty riff. And God bless the late, great, Michael Lee. I love this song...........

mos6507 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I've said it before and will said it again. Jimmy is semi-retired and he'll do something substantial only when he feels like it, which at this rate is probably never. It's frustrating when he says things in interviews that makes it seem like he's working on something. I get the sense that he's just trying to avoid admitting to himself and the public that he's retired. But his action speak louder than words. He's dabbling here and there in low-impact stuff. The usual flurry of magazine interviews. Showing up at some award ceremonies. Maybe a couple one off live appearances a year. That's it. He's the grizzled warrior who keeps his axe sharp but rarely feels the need to use it other than to just show that he still can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstork Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Embryo 1 or 2? I don't know. I know there's an "Embryo 1" and an "Embryo 2" credited in the movie, and I know from reading a fan review that "Domino" is in the movie, so I can only assume that one of those two will be recognizable as "Domino". Unlike most "new music by Jimmy" speculation, at least we know we'll have an answer to this mystery very soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bitnogoodjive Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 "As far as new music, yeah, I've got some new music. There's sort of little tastes and shades of it in the documentary. Bits. It's just a question of actually doing it now. Actually getting a project that I've had in mind for a while. I've just got to go and do it. Don't want to tell anyone about it. But, yes, I've got a big project I'm working on." http://blogs.laweekly.com/westcoastsound/l...ack-white-talk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
