		Born James Charles Rodgers on September 8, 1897, in the east Mississippi town of Meridian, Jimmie was the youngest of three boys born to Eliza and Aaron Rodgers.
		Despite the awesome burden it put on Jimmie's spirits and his family's prospects, the disease served to challenge and drive him, forcing him to pursue his dream of music since the rigors of railroading were no longer an option.
		As much as Jimmie Rodgers represented a break with past traditions in country music, typified in his parting of the ways with the Tenneva Ramblers, he also must be viewed as a point of common ground for devotees of many disparate musical idioms, including blues, old-time western, Hawaiian, jug band, and jazz.

		In the mid-'40s, guitarist Jimmy Rogers plied his trade at such popular local watering holes as Pepper's Lounge, the Macambo Club, and the Zanzibar--rough-and-tumble, smoke-filled nightspots that served up cheap whiskey and loud, electrified blues.
		But Rogers grew disillusioned with the music business; like many other artists, he was ripped off for royalties by the Chess brothers.
		Rogers return was further bolstered by 1994's critically acclaimed Blue Bird (Acoustic Sounds), a sensational live set featuring Chicago blues great Carey Bell on harmonica.

		Starkly printed in fl and white with washed-out, grainy photographs, this is one heavy slab of blues by a player who is not as well-known as he should be.
		Guitarist Jimmy Rogers was usually overshadowed by the leaders he worked for, Muddy Waters particularly.
		He was also sometimes confused with the hillbilly singer Jimmie Rodgers, and although they might have sounded good together, they don't have anything in common.

	Jimmy Rogers: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		Jimmy Rogers, one of Chess Records'; less well-known recording artists under his own name though he was a mainstay of Muddy Waters'; band in the early '50s, was well-represented by the two-CD set Complete Chess Recordings issued in 1997, the year of his death.
		But that collection, with its numerous alternate takes, was a little more than the average blues fan needed, so this still-generous one-disc, 22-track distillation is a welcome addition to his catalog.
		As a charter member of the Headhunters, the brash crew that also included Muddy Waters and Jimmy Rogers (so named because of their penchant for entering nightclubs featuring other musicians and blowing them off the stage with their superior musicianship), "Baby Face" Leroy Foster was on hand to help develop the postwar Chicago blues idiom.

	Blue Bird - Jimmy Rogers - Music Reviews
		This was Jimmy Rogers' last "proper" Chicago blues album, and it deservedly won a W.C. Handy Award in 1995.
		As expected, Rogers revisits a fair amount of his earlier repertoire ("Walking By Myself," "I Lost a Good Woman"), but he also digs up several original tunes that he had never gotten around to recording until now.
		The backing band is a mix of Chicago blues brethren (Carey Bell on harp, Dave Myers on bass, Ted Harvey on drums) and family (Rogers' son Jimmy D. Lane on lead guitar), plus Johnson, who is perhaps a rock star by association since he played with Chuck Berry for 18 years.
