I'm Just Dead, I'm Not Gone: Life and Times of Jim Dickinson

#sxsw #JimDickinson

Jim Dickinson, recording artist, producer, raconteur, Memphian and Mississipian, conservator of Southern music and World Boogie, gets the retrospective treatment from those who knew and worked with him in his many guises. A South by Southwest regular from the very first year, Dickinson appeared as Elvis, performed with his sons, and generously pontificated about everything from the Dixie Flyers' residency in Miami as Jerry Wexler's house band, and his tours and recordings with Ry Cooder and Bob Dylan to his production of acts including Big Star, the Replacements, Mojo Nixon, and the True Believers.
