Jimmie Skinner
I'm Doin' My Time CD
Known and loved by all fans of vintage country music, Jimmie Skinner is one of the most important singer-songwriters to have emerged from the hillbilly hotbed of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Sounding a lot like his own hero, the great Ernest Tubb (who later recorded several of Jimmie’s songs) Jimmie’s simple, uncluttered recordings received much jukebox play and eventually considerable chart action too.
This new collection focuses on the most successful and productive years of Jimmie’s career – the mid-1950s to the early '60s when he was a frequent visitor to the Billboard Country & Western charts and before his simple, earthy hillbilly stylings were elbowed aside to make room for The Nashville Sound.
Included among the tracks are several of Jimmie’s best-known songs among the hundreds that he composed.
Timeless classics such as Will You Be Satisfied That Way, I Found My Girl In The USA and the title track are among those that will forever ensure Jimmie’s membership in the Country Songwriters’ Hall Of Fame.
The audio is remastered from the best possible sources and the booklet features a comprehensive biography.
