From Pete Chambers in Godiva Rides<\/b> ” Jimmy Jimmy formed by buskers Jimmy Kemp and James O’Neill, who’s close two part harmonies of Beatles songs and cute little hats seemed to be a permanent fixture on Hertford Street outside what was Habitat \/ Index – now the 99p shop. So the story goes The Jimmys were ‘discovered’ playing there and Epic records signed them up for a deal. They released an album Here In The Light and a bunch of singles including I Met Her in Paris, Silence (which was a number 1 hit in Japan ) and the obligatory Beatles cover All you Need is Love. What sounded good at busking level never really cut ice at gigs, they always still appeared to be busking. Because of their recording contract they made it second on the bill at Cov Aid. Things improved slightly when employed a full band. Although it wasn’t until Out of the Blue formed that the whole sound took off, albeit without Jimmy Kemp.” See Out of the Blue.<\/span><\/div>\n
