Sammy Rimington
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sammy Rimington (b. April 29, 1942) is an English jazz reed player born in London. He has been an active Dixieland jazz revivalist since the late 1950s.
Rimington played with Barry Martyn in 1959, then played with Ken Colyer from 1960 to 1965. That year he moved to the United States, and worked with Big Bill Bissonnette's Easy Rider Jazz Band. He made some jazz fusion recordings early in the 1970s, but most of his work has been in the New Orleans jazz vein, playing with Chris Barber, Kid Thomas Valentine, Captain John Handy, and others. He has recorded extensively as a bandleader since the early 1960s.
