Little Jimmy Dickens - Gonna Shake This Shack Tonight - Country - CD

Visitors to Nashville's Grand Ole Opry can still hear the ninety years old Little Jimmy Dickens most Saturday nights?like most Saturday nights since 1949! These days, Little Jimmy doesn't record and doesn't tour?he only plays the Opry and makes a few local appearances, but when we catch up with him in the 1950s he was on top of his game, and one of the hottest performers in the business. He also had one of the very best bands in the history of country music, and gave an early break to stars like Buddy Emmons, Grady Martin, and Spider Wilson. Jimmy's Country Boys could play jazz, boogie, and country. This set includes all of Little Jimmy's fabulous up-tempo recordings from the 1950s, including his cover version of Piano Red's Rockin' With Red, and classics like Hillbilly Fever, I Got A Hole In My Pocket, Hey Worm (You Wanna Wiggle) and Salty Boogie. You'll also hear Little Jimmy Dicken's hot band on numbers like Buddy's Boogie, Country Boy Bounce, and Raisin' The Dickens.

You can still see Little Jimmy Dickens at the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday nights-he's been raising the roof there for over 55 years! And here are the tunes that first shook that (big) shack-31 cuts of his patented brand of country boogie. Includes Jimmy's cover of Piano Red's Rockin' with Red; Hillbilly Fever; I Got a Hole in My Pocket; Hey Worm (You Wanna Wiggle); Salty Boogie; Buddy's Boogie; Country Boy Bounce; Raisin' the Dickens; Out Behind the Barn; Big Sandy, and more.
