The Life of a Jimmy Skiff...the Death of Miriam

A CLC Jimmy Skiff plays a central role in Norah Jones' latest video, for her song Miriam. A morbidly beautiful number. The Jimmy Skiff, built from a kit by Scott Sweeney of Austin, Texas, looks absolutely striking. Thanks, Scott, for loaning your Jimmy Skiff to the production company!
