BILL WYMAN’S RHYTHM KINGS
featuring
GARY BROOKER
3rd August - 24th August 2001 - North America Tour

Bill’ Wyman’s Rhythm Kings shows featuring Gary Brooker in the US and Canada in 2001.
This series is dedicated to the late great Gary Brooker (29/05/45 - 19/02/22) and the ‘QE2’ which, so we assumed, must have brought BW and GB over because of their mutual fear of flying. In between time we learned (through BW's diaries) that at least Bill took a Virgin flight from Heathrow to get over to New York City on August 2, but we still don't know how Gary Brooker came to the US and how both of them went back. So good ole QE2 is still a possibility.
A big thank you to all the people who recorded these shows and who shared them and to my two accomplices nzb and Jaap (Stonesmuziekfan) who gave me the benefit of their versions of these shows and their advice and support ... and therefore without whom this project would not have been possible.

Line-up: BW (bass)/Gary Brooker (keyb, voc)/Georgie Fame (keyb, voc)/Terry Taylor (gtr, bvoc)/Martin Taylor (gtr)/Albert Lee (gtr, voc)/Graham Broad (dr)/Beverley Skeete (voc)/Janice Hoyt (voc)/Frank Mead (sax, perc)/Nick Payn (sax, flute, harm)

All our versions were coming from the same lossy recording.
I used the version coming from nzb because the other versions had diginoises in several tracks but because of cd-rot on his disc 2 the 3 last tracks were unrippable. For these ones I used the other versions and deleted most of the diginoises… but some of these ‘buggers’ can still be heard, in particular in the band introduction.
I deleted microgaps between the tracks.
‘Hit The Road Jack’ and ‘Melody’ are incomplete.

As usual all the infos are taken from The Complete Works Of The Rolling Stones database by Nico Zentgraf: [www.nzentgraf.de]
