Jimmy Norman was an American rhythm and blues musician and songwriter, best known for co-writing The Rolling Stones' hit "Time Is on My Side." He played a significant role in the evolution of R&B during the 1960s, contributing to its fusion with rock 'n' roll. Norman's distinct style combined the raw energy of R&B with the lyrical sophistication of jazz, and his work, particularly the album "Little Pieces," is noted for its soulful, emotive performances. Despite not achieving widespread fame, his contributions to music have left a lasting legacy.
