Jim Dickinson (1942 - 2009) R.I.P.

I just learned that Jim died. I’m punched in the chest.

Jim’s presence here may be gone. And it was a big presence. But his music, his spirit? Well, hell, you know how this sentence ends…. I’m sad. Deeply. But the memories that swirl tonight under the ceiling fan aren’t sad at all.

I have more photo’s somewhere. Below’s a Poloroid I took of Jim and Dan Stuart at El Dorado Studios. And above one of the many mix cassettes Jim schooled me with.

Dickinson on the passing of Sam Phillips: “They say God created all men equal. I think God gave Sam just a little extra.” Same goes for you too Bubba. I miss you. Prayers go out to Luther, Cody and of course Mary Lindsey.
