One of the most optimistic and genuine guys you’ll meet, Jimmy talks about the incredible positive influence his dad had on him, and also the pressure he often felt being “Harry’s son”… a great story about the best gig he had, playing as part of the house band for Bon Jovi’s birthday party – playing alongside Roger Waters, Billy Joel, and Paul McCartney.
