Welcome to the ONLY Jimmy Vivino official website!



Al Kooper at B.B. Kings Feb 5

Al played last night at B.B. King's performing some solo numbers, with the Danny Kalb Trio, with singer Kristina Train (accompanied by Fab Faux member Jack Petruzelli), with the Prisoners of 2nd Avenue and with the Funky Faculty. Whew!! Here's some video of the event courtesy of "Schlockumentaries" as posted on YouTube. We'll be posting lots of photos soon from all your favorite photographers. (posted 2/6/2010)


Jimmy Back in New York for Christmas

Jimmy played with Felix Cabrera at the Turning Point in Piedmont, NY on December 26th. Here's a great shot of Jimmy taken by photographer Bernard Ente during the sound check.

Art Holiday’s documentary on Johnnie Johnson progressing

As reported here some time ago, Art Holiday is producing a documentary on the great Johnny Johnson, the man who discovered Chuck Berry and is one of the largely uncredited founding fathers of rock and roll.

Art reports that he’s completed interviews with Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, the late Bo Diddley, Taylor Hackford, Bruce Hornsby, Buddy Guy, Paul Shaffer, Al Kooper, John Sebastian, Johnny Rivers, Dr. John, Chuck Leavell, Steve Jordan, Joe Perry, Eddie Money, Lou Gossett, Malcolm McDowell, Ian McLagan and of course, Jimmy Vivino.

Jimmy

Jimmy says the following about Johnnie: "It’s just how Johnnie can play around the lead or the lead guitar or whatever’s going on. The spots he finds, man. It’s like a pitcher that find the corner of that plate, man. Not just throwing it down the middle, he finds, he gets that corner and gets your attention right away. It’s something I’m afraid I’ll never experience again with another piano player."

Jimmy

Here's the great 1995 CD that Jimmy produced for Johnnie (along with performers Mike Merritt, James Wormworth and guests Phoebe Snow, Max Weinberg, Jerry Vivino, Buddy Guy, Al Kooper, John Sebastian, Bobb Jay and Steve Jordan.) Unfortunately, it's been discontinued, but if you search around, you can probably find a copy. It's worth searching for...it's a great record.

More information on the movie can be found here: Johnnie Be Good, The Movie site (posted 9/11/2009)
