">HERE:DESCRIBED THUSLY:
"Mississippi-based producer and musician Jim Dickinson has worked on hundreds of recordings over a career in music spanning five decades. In that time, he has worked at some of the most legendary studios in the southern United States (Ardent, Muscle Shoals and Sun), and contributed to a veritable whos who of the past fifty years of rock, blues and soul from playing keyboards for Aretha Franklin, Ry Cooder, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan to producing records for artists like Big Star, Green on Red, The Replacements, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, as well as dozens more."

THIS IS THE FIRST ARTICLE I READ, SO I'M INCLUDING IT...FROM 'THE EXAMINER' I THINK:
Dickinson was a sought after session musician who played piano on numerous albums including The Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers, Aretha Franklins Spirit In The Dark, and Bob Dylans Time Out Of Mind. His production work on the Big Star album Third/Sister Lovers, recorded in 1974, but not released until 1978, made him an in-demand producer for many of the new bands who would soon top the college alternative charts in the 80s. In addition to The Replacements, Dickinson also produced Jason & The Scorchers, Willy DeVille, John Hiatt, and Houston favorite Joe King Carrasco.Jim Dickinson also fronted a band called Snake Eyes and recorded several solo albums including the 2006 album Jungle Jim And The Voodoo Tiger featuring his sons Luther and Cody: North Mississippi Allstars.
