molan Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 just wondered if anyone had seen him play - he's been around a long time and has a pretty impressive CV: http://www.philbrodieband.com/muso_jerome-rimson.htm Quote
Count Bassy Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Yes, but a long time ago, probably 1979. He was playing with Roger Chapman and the Shortlist. If you want to hear some of his playing live, may I recommend the "Live in Hamburg" Album. Just re-issued with the normal bonus tracks etc. Always been one of my favourite bassists, based on that album. Quote
JTUK Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Really took notice of him when I heard him with Chapman years back. I wore the album out.. Can't recall where I saw his name relatively recently....??? Quote

JTUK Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Sounds interesting...might keep an eye on that Quote

ChrisDev Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 It has already sold out http://www.geronimo-inns.co.uk/london-the-half-moon/events/12245 Quote
Buzzy Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Loved his playing with Van Morrison in the 70s [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eVZIVir1ZE"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eVZIVir1ZE[/url] & [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpPSBzGEklE"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpPSBzGEklE[/url] Quote

Double Drat, as it also features Tim Hinkley and Mel Collins, who were also on the "Live in Hamburg" album I mentioned. Quote
bassriff Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 I love Rimson's bass sound on Stomu Yamashita's "Go, love from Paris". Does anyone know which bass he plays? I know he often played Rickenbacker but I can't find photos of the gig. Thanks Quote
spongebob Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 Holy thread revival, Batman! Funnily enough, JR is a name I only recently came across, as he plays on the second Automatic Man album. It came up when I was doing some research on his modified Rickenbacker. More info here - http://bassoutpost.com/index.php?topic=10566.msg179861#new Quote
