 Foster & Rice Songbook
Jimmy Payne is also a very talented songwriter, as well as a fine singer, and he’s been close friends with Jerry and Bill, ever since, as a young aspiring writer, he pitched his songs to them at WTCB Radio.
It was very much a ‘Head Session,’ that is, Jimmy and the musicians ‘kicked the songs around’ for a while, to come up with some original versions of these great songs.
For me, personally, Jimmy’s performance of ‘Ain’t She Somethin’ Else’ is a memorable high spot on the album but I’m sure you are going to have your own favourites, because Jimmy Payne, with the able and sympathetic assistance of producer Roy Morris, has recorded one of the best Modern Country albums ever cut in Britain.
