Next Episode: Mini-Memories 4 - of an interview with Al Green
After chart success in the 1970s, Jimmy went back to session playing, but by the late 80s he was desperate to get his own band together.

In part 2 of this interview, Jimmy talks about how the record company wanted changes, and how that success changed everything. We also talk about one of the great parties that neither of us has a great memory of!
