This video is in memory of an old friend of mine …a a piano player from Cincinnati named Jimmy Nichols …or “Knuckles”, as the legendary record producer Mark Bright used to call him
I haven’t seen Jimmy in a few years, but we worked together A LOT in the late 2000’s ….i remember back around 2007, i walked by him one time in Starstruck Studio on a session while he was talking to someone on the phone, and I heard him blurt out “yeah man , it’s 120k for 8 weeks”
When he hung up the phone with whoever he was talking to, I said “yo dude, WHAT is 120k for 8 weeks??”
He said “the Faith Hill tour man…I already asked you about it a while ago and you said no”
Needless to say , at that moment I reconsidered hahaaa
He was lovable oaf…he will be missed
Friends, I implore you as I also tell myself …ENJOY EVERY FUCKING SANDWICH because we all know how fleeting this life is…which leads me to the beginning of today’s little clip
every man on this earth needs a little place of respite. …even if it’s just an average run of the mill stereo system, maybe with some cool old records to listen to , maybe some nice coffee to drink and a cool old chess board to teach his sons how to play the greatest game ever invented
And yes friends, all those records are alphabetically organized.
