Jimmy’s new album is the perfect example of true “soulcraft”….Listening to ‘Common Lot’ is like stumblimg across a lovingly built artefact in some out of the way store – something you can cherish but which others might never have the joy of witnessing…Common Lot might have arrive unheralded but it is beautifully crafted and, if you were wavering, can make you believe in the power (of) music again.’ (Rhythms magazine Aug 2012)
