Song writer John Brim (1922-2003) was a largely self-taught blues guitarist who had left his home in Kentucky for Chicago in 1945 to pursue his performing and song writing dreams. A frequent side man, Brim also formed his own band which included songwriter, guitarist and singer Jimmy Reed and Brim's wife Grace on drums. His laid back style and easy rhythms in his self written songs like, "Rattlesnake", "Moonlight blues" and "Let me hold you" helped to popularize Brim's name. One of his earliest cover recordings was Big Walter Horton's version of "That ain't right". In later years, Brim's songs were discovered and recorded by artists such as Angela Strehli ("Tough times"), Tom Waits ("Ice cream man", 1973), Van Halen ("Ice cream man", 1978) and, of course, Screamin' Jay Hawkins ("Ice cream man", 1991). In his later years Brim continued to make frequent club appearances where he was still accompanied on drums by Gracie. | Song writer John Brim (1922-2003) was a largely self-taught blues guitarist who had left his home in Kentucky for Chicago in 1945 to pursue his performing and song writing dreams.
