Jimmy is a more talented drummer than people realize.
I always thought Jimmy was recognized as one of the best drummers of his era. He’s phenomenal.
I remember feeling let down about Darcy when I found out Billy played almost all her bass parts on the albums going back to Gish IIRC. It was on one of those breaking the band docs. Don’t know if it was 100% accurate but it would explain some of the toxic relationships that developed in the band.

The band went off the rails on the drug train and a lot of it was heroin. Billy was having to pull the wagon by himself quite a bit.
It wasn't just D'arcy (although she was in bad, bad shape there for awhile). James was in pretty bad shape. Jimmy OD'd with the touring keyboard player (Melvoin, Wendy of the Revolution's brother, the inspiration for that excruciating "Arms of the Angels", etc.), the keyboard player died and Jimmy almost died.
Jimmy's job was the only one Billy couldn't do. It was also the easiest to hire out, frankly, when it had to be done.
