I had the privilege to work with Jimmy on the road and in the studio. I found him easy to work with. He was open to ideas and always gave 100%. He was one of my heroes, in my opinion one of the most interesting guitarists of the post-war era.

Thanks Frank for your nice comment about Jimmy Dawkins. And thanks also to have produced probably the best latter days album Jimmy Dawkins recorded

Also thank you Frank for sharing your memories of working with Jimmy.

Merci, Gérard, je suis extrêmement flatté. J'ai récemment ré-écouté les deux CDs Fedora après ne pas les avoir entendus depuis des lunes, et je dois dire que j'ai été agréablement surpris!

now the case of Brother Jimmy is a fascinating one especially this album, never anything that exciting really with fairly ordinary but attractive vocals, solid but sometimes overblown arrangements but terrible ideas throughout, The Things That I used to Do done by Freddy King is a monster but Jimmy romps through it like he's late for supper, but does produce some stinging guitar, a bit of a tribute to Freddy I suppose. I mean unless the song is The Thrill is Gone forget about synthetic strings and stick to horns or organ. And some of the guitar work is spotty..just telling it like is Ma-nigg, can I get a witness? Yeah longer tunes but nobody brought any bacon...but know what, so what, because every second listen gets a third with this dude, same thing as Luther Guitar Junior Johnson, Luther Tucker and other dudes who never have enough quality material. Jimmy you rock.
