Jim Dickinson: Home Cooking
Joss Hutton, Perfect Sound Forever, January 2002
THIS MAIN COURSE is a hearty southern dish, marinated in worldly wisdom and good humour, matured slowly in honky-tonks, recording studios and bars the world over. It is accompanied by side dishes of Dewey Phillips, Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder and Bob Dylan, with a hefty slice of Big Star for dessert.
