Jimmy Day - Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigaretta

Post by Bill Ferguson »

Here's a clip of the late Jimmy Day and also the late Bobby Caldwell on a great old favorite, jazzed up by Jimmy.

This is from the 1997 International Steel Guitar Convention.

Enjoy,
Bill

I think that's the best clip of Jimmy that I've ever seen.
Is there any way you could get permission to post something by Curly Chalker ?

This is one of the best and clearest videos, of the Great Jimmy Day, that I have seen in a while. All of these Great players, looked like they were having more fun than the law allows. I bet the stage was beginning to smoke when they shut it down!

Thanks very much for the chip, Bill Ferguson!
