Jimmy Rosenberg played in Poppodium VOLT in Sittard. With Martin Heffels, Harold Collaris, Kristian Severens and Melanie Meydam we were allowed to follow him that day. After the gig we had an open conversation. Jimmy wants to get clean and this was a 'final' gig before he would go to the clinic. The provided transcription is very crude and lacking in nuance.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jimmy Rosenberg speelde op 2 december 2018 in de kleine zaal van Poppodium VOLT. Samen met Martin Heffels, Harold Collaris, Kristian Severens en Melanie Meydam mocht ik Jimmy die dag volgen. Na zijn optreden hebben we een openhartig gesprek gehad.
De documentaires waar in het gesprek naar verwezen worden zijn hier te vinden. De met het Gouden Kalf bekroonde docu van Jeroen Berkvens is meer dan de moeite waard en geeft een kijkje in het leven van een talent die een constante strijd voert met zijn demonen.

De documentaire Jon & Jimmy gaat over hun samenwerking en vriendschap. Deze is op KZfaq te vinden.

There is SO much people can learn from this video - not just musicians. Jimmy is a beautiful human being.

No, there is just one thing people can learn from this video: don't do drugs.

@DanielWeltlinger 3 жыл бұрын

@@MartinMaat NO. You can learn how to be a good human being. It's not so hard. Sometimes people end up on drugs because of all the bullshit from other people around them, and there's no shortage of that. Been well aware for a long time of a lot of stuff going on, am close to many of these families. No chance with me with such a poor excuse for an argument.

Jimmy, als je dit ziet, typ ik dit in een vertaler in de hoop dat het logisch is. Als mede-gitarist en muzikant, en iemand die onderweg is geweest en de beproevingen van zo'n leven heeft meegemaakt, begrijp ik volledig wat je doormaakt. Het enige dat ik kan zeggen is dat de hele Jazz-gemeenschap met spanning wacht op je terugkeer, en dat ze allemaal de beste gebeden wensen die we je kunnen geven. Het verleden is voorbij, de toekomst is nog niet. Laat het verleden in het verleden. Leef je leven, Jimmy, je hebt de wereld veel meer te geven dan je tot nu toe hebt gegeven, en we zouden allemaal zeer vereerd zijn dat je dit doet. Het is geweldig je te zien, en kom alsjeblieft snel weer op je muziek!

Amazing for Jimmy to be wearing his heart on his sleeve. There's no doubt he's seen the darkest shit that can happen in one's life but still has the strength and courage to try and get past that. An amazing musician and human being. Thanks for producing the interview, and good luck to Jimmy on his road to recovery.

Coming from a 40+ year guitar player myself, his playing on Made For Wesley, is some of the greatest soloing in the history of not just guitar, but from any instrumentalist. It's not about the notes, it's about the emotions Jimmy exudes from his playing, taking you to places you never expected throughout the whole recording. Every time I listen to that performance the emotions start to take over and make me forget everything. Which is what pure music should be about but is rarely achieved. I truly hope Jimmy can conquer his demons. He's been struggling with them for such a long time. And I hope he and Jon Larsen can get back together, work things out and get back to the deep friendship they both had and obviously both miss. My best to you Jimmy.

Listening to Jimmy in person here is NOTHING like listening to Jimmy on recordings. There is no flash in this man! I would love to hear original music from Jimmy that matches his persona - subdued, from the heart, humble, sweet and honest. I never really though of him as an original artist, and to me he has always been kind of like a circus act - a speedy virtuoso with an amazing talent and blow away technique. To be honest his fast playing is also very messy here, and IMHO he could do to go for a slower cleaner and warmer tone to match the person inside. After all he's making a comeback, and cleaning his act up - so I hope he re-invents the music too.

die eerste vraag. hoe vind je het met zo een slechtere gitarist. mijn droom was met Jimmy pingelen en hij deed het met me meerdere keren toen ik net 18 was en hij 30. geweldig en door hem heb ik veel geleerd. geweldige gitarist en hij praat je niet neer al ben je slechter. hij wijst je de goede kant op en hij was onwijs vriendelijk. ik wil graag weer meer van hem horen qua muziek. hij leerde me veel en ik was vd theorie, daar was hij niet van maar ook niet nodig want hij speelde direct na wat ik deed zonder er over na te denken:O beste gitarist ter wereld die houd van muziek en zonder sterallures. mooi persoon

Like Charlie Parker, Bud Powell, Hank Mobley, Wes Montgomery, Oscar Peterson, Joe Pass, Dizzy Gillespie, Chick Corea, Jean Luc Ponty, Charlie Christian, John Coltrane, Micheal Brecker, Jimi Hendrix, George Duke, John Mcglaughlin, Frank Zappa, Charles Mingus, Sabicus, Paco De Lucia, Wynton Marsalis, Art Tatum and of course Django Reinhardt. And pretty much anyone who sees all of the above as family, are my brothers and sisters also. It's a good family to be apart of.
