Recorded in the Lakes Region of Central Florida near Orlando, with local musicians, Cryin' Cowboy has an Easy Listenin' Country Feel. " This CD is really about where I'm coming from," says Jimmy. It is a collection of country, blues, and traditional tunes with songs by John Denver, The Everly Brothers, Van Morrison, Glen Campbell, Creedance Clearwater and of course Bob Dylan. This is a studio recording with a live feel. "I told Dereck Hess, who has recorded with Lynyrd Skynyrd, to play the drums smooth and simple like me on the one man band, only better. He knew just what I was talkin' about. Bobby Croft, who is the chief sound engineer, co-producer, and bass player, has toured with Bob Dylan and the Allman Brothers. Bobby is good mates with Gregg Allman, so he kept us entertained in the studio with some good Cher and Gregg stories." Cryin'Cowboy, the title track, is an original in the style of Mississippi John Hurt. This is probably the best of my early songs...I like the way I've stuck that major 7th chord right square in the middle of a blues tune.." If you like Country, this one's for you! Tracks:
