He has been a mainstay of the Nashville music scene since 1949, but he's one of the least-appreciated artists in the city. Now he's one of the last real country artists who grew up back in the hills and started off singing pure mountain music. When Jimmy came to Nashville, he signed with Columbia, and this set gathers his complete Columbia recordings from 1949 to early 1957. Jimmy not only recorded superb uptempo novelties like Take An Old Cold Tater And Wait, Country Boy, I've Got A Rocket In My Pocket, Hillbilly Fever, A-Sleepin' At The Foot Of The Bed and Out Behind The Barn, but he was also one of the great ballad singers of our time, recording enduring and heartfelt ballads like My Heart's Bouquet and the original version of such country standards as Take Me As I Am Or Let Me Go, Life Turned Her That Way, We Could and Another Bridge To Burn. Jimmy also hired some great pickers including Jabbo Arrington, Spider Wilson, Grady Martin, and Thumbs Carlille. The 105 tracks on this collection begin to set the record straight on Little Jimmy Dickens!

This box set was owned by an older gentleman who took excellent care of all his items.
