The Late Great Jim Dickinson's Swampland Contributions

Posted: Aug 17, 2009

Jim Dickinson's Favorite Films, Musicians and Barbecue Articles

Jim Dickinson died on Saturday and it makes me think of how proud I was to know him, interview him and enable him to write for Swampland. I last spoke with him on May 22, and he planned on writing another contribution once he got feeling better. Then he had another heart-attack...

Nonetheless, his articles on Memphis Barbecue, Favorite Places to Eat On the Road, Desert Island Music and Favorite Films stands as timeless articles by a great musician. I feel proud we were able to allow a great artist an outlet to flash glimpses of his indelible insight. I'm working on gathering quotes from friends, musicians and family regarding the work and soul of Jim Dickinson. I'd love to hear what guys like Dylan, Keith Richards and Ry Cooder would say...maybe we'll find out. Here's something Dylan said about Dickinson years ago regarding their work together on Dylan's Time Out of Mind.

Until later,

James Calemine

flashing lights says...

A very common use of a strobe light today is in emergency vehicles, especially when the light needs to be fitted in a concealed manner. A police light can be fitted as a hideaway light into the headlight of a vehicle and will be completely invisible till it is activated. flashing lights are also extensively used in off-road car shows where multicolored strobes are used on cars to produce moving lights that can go up and down, to keep beat with the rhythm of the background music.Everyone need a wholesale pen and all of us hold a wholesale umbrella in case of the bad weather, so they are good tools to promote your new brand. A stress ball is a good tool to release stress.
