People like Stan Phillips thought I was scary that I was over the top - but I could play rocknroll. - Jim Dickinson The late Jim Dickinson is one of the most eclectic personages rock nroll has ever thrown up: a musical maverick. From Sun Records and Ardent Studios in the 1960s to sessions with the Rolling Stones Ry Cooder and Bob Dylan significant productions of Big Star and the Replacements and the twisted roots rock of his own Mud Boy The Neutrons the man was never ever predictable. A solo album had not been at the forefront of Jim Dickinsons mind then but once the idea was put in place by Jerry Wexler at Atlantic he reacted conceptually and with gusto. Dickinson always shot from the hip. He could be coarse on a rocker like Wine or dignified and joyous when celebrating The Strength of Love. Inebriated laments like Wild Bill Jones contrast sharply with the carny talk of O How She Dances and a shifting indignant anti-war recitation entitled John Brown. As a music maker who could relate equally to both the intellectual and the visceral aspects of popular culture anything Dickinson lent his hand to was at least interesting and frequently rewarding. Such is the case with Dixie Fried his solo debut from 1972. Unsuccessful upon release the record now is now a cult item that for many mirrors the deliciously unexpected twists and turns of Dickinsons subsequent career. * Remastered from the original tapes * Features seven unreleased tracks * Liner notes include excerpts from unpublished memoirs * Rare ephemera from Dickinson archives * Expanded 2xLP housed in a deluxe gatefold Stoughton tip-on jacket Tracklist: 1.
