The notes on the pics say that Jimmy will be in Rio till the 28th and that he is going to visit other samba schools during the week. The notes also say that Jimmy wants to record the samba schools and use their drumings on his new project.

Time will tell.

Hopes die last. ;) ;)

Is there anyone on the site that speaks Portugese? I used an internet translation service, but the translation is a bit literal - it says that he will record with the musicians in September. Is this correct? If this is the case, what are the chances of the album being released in 2010? I agree that Jimmy was looking a bit thin in the face, but happy and healthy nevertheless.

What's the deal with that Brazilian blog? Jimmy comes to town and there's no Led Zeppelin represented in their "Rock/Pop" header? I see John and Paul, Michael J., Elvis, one of the Ramones, Gene Simmons, Stevie Wonder, Kurt Cobain, Jack White, then ?

But No Zep

No integrity!

Hrrrrmmphhhh!!!!

It actually says that Jimmy will be back in Rio in September to record with Mangueira school samba. But it can be speculation, just as many of the stories we have already heard about Jimmy's projects all through these years. Let's see if this one comes true. ;)

Hello Brspled!

Thank you for sharing this info with us! Jimmy looks so happy in these pics. I'm glad he's kept his connections to Brazil and continued his interest in Brazilian culture.

Agreed, and even if he does it could simply be for Mangueira's benefit as opposed to manifesting new music of his own. However, given his recent hinting at a change in musical direction I file this one under where there's smoke there's fire.

Seeing this thread made me extremely happy for some reason...maybe because it portends some new music from Mr. Page or maybe just because Jimmy looks like he's having a good time and he's looking pretty good for 66. Had to chuckle at one of the photos where it looks like Jimmy left the barn door open.

Just to show how out of the loop I've been, I had no idea he was divorced from Jimena until reading about it just now! WTF?!? When did this happen? Is Casa Jimmy still operating or is that over with?
