Jim Callaghan

Former Stones (and Dylan) head of security Jim Callaghan popped up on the BBC's 'Antiques Roadshow' yesterday getting some of his memorabilia valued.  Good to see him after such a long time (he last worked with the Stones around 2002, I think)

Hopefully those of you outside the UK can view the link :

Intriguingly, he did drop hints that he's putting his memories into a book at some point.

He did recall how Mick hugged him and thanked him for saving his life in Japan on his solo tour in 1988 when he made a horrendous error of judgement and decided to walk through the crowd

In case youve never seen the clip, here it is. About 90 seconds in :

More excitement than he'd had since 1966!  Or December, 1969.

It seems a post on a Dylan facebook page that Jim has passed away was incorrect. I do understand that he's seriously ill. Hopefully he pulls through and recovers soon.

Good to hear for his sake obviously, but also it was a little disappointing that there was no comment from the Stones so it seems they know how he is doing and there was no need for any comment.

Unfortunately, Jim didnt survive his illness and passed away yesterday

From Alan Clayton of The Dirty Strangers on facebook :

“Very sad news that Jim Callaghan has passed, I met Jim in 1976 working security for him. Through Jim I met Joe Seabrook who introduced me to Keith Richards, and my adventures began.

A giant of a man in stature and personality, anyone who knew Jim will remember him with a smile.

Love to his family and his lovely wife Norma xxx”
