Slack Key West by JIM WEST aka "Kimo" West!

got an e-mail from JIM WEST! He's got a new web site... and a new CD! Order "Slack Key West" here!
Jim is a Tampa native. Before he moved to L.A. in 1981, he was in "Slaves of Rhythm," "Tons of Fun" and "Z-Boss" and other bands here in Tampa with myself and others. Out in L.A., We were both first in the "Kaywell Brothers" with Father Jerry, then we started "Johnny Lyon and the Hitmakers." Jim has gone on to do a lot of cool stuff. Perhaps most notably, he is Weird Al Yankovic's guitarist. In addition to recording and touring with Al, he writes and records a lot of TV and movie scores and soundtracks.
He's been doing Hawaiian "Slack-Key" guitar for a while now. It's pretty cool.
Jim will be touring this fall. What would be a good venue for him to perform in Tampa? Perhaps Friday Morning Musicale or someplace like that? Any suggestions appreciated, just "comment!"
Read an interview with JIM from 1999!

Also, when in L.A., say hi to Steve and Solly!
Here's a 2005 photo of Jim (and Max) with JGLB!
