His guitars were being sold on consignment at Bran Dillard's Pickers' Supply in Fredericksburg in 1984. I bought one of them, a classical Ovation. Jimmy's daughter wanted to buy it, but for me to replace it, including the trip to Hagerstown and a day of travelling, would have costed more than she was able or willing to pay. I have written provenance from Bran Dillard.

I was lucky enough to take guitar lessons with Jimmy in East TX for while in late 1980s/early 1990s. His musical ability was tremendous.

Maybe unknowingly the interviewer insinuates that my father, Big Joe Greene, brought Jimmy to Nashville to live in a lowly trailer and disappointing Jimmy in that even a working successful bluegrass musician, life couldn't get better than a single wide,In fact that single wide was brought to Nashville from my father's trailer park in High Point,North Carolina to work the Opry during off season. Our home was actually in Carolina along with another home in Kingsport Tennessee. I lived with Jimmy on and off most of my childhood and teenage years and people on aware of the caliber musician this man was or what he could have been. Sadly, Jimmy's first job was working for my pop and he loved my dad so much that he tried to be like him and act like him and that's regretful. Alcoholism and drug use aside Jimmy and my pops were two of the most talented people in the business

I met Jimmy a few years before he passed away and a proud to call him a friend. My old telecaster never sounded as good as when he played it. We talked about getting together and doing some recording but never got around to do it. I really wish that we would have made that happen just for the memories.

The man's name is Charlie Moore. Not Monroe..this sort of interview is what's problematic in busting the mythology of bluegrass. Eddie Dean authors an article, and NYT bestselling author and he cannot get basic integral facts correct. Jesus Christ.
@traviskitchens4219 2 жыл бұрын
This is a casual interview, bud, not the Jefferson lecture for god's sake. What does "busting the mythology" of bluegrass have to do with mispronouncing someone's name from an article 20 years ago? Eddie has written dozens and dozens of articles on bluegrass plus three books since then, so if you think he doesn't know who Charlie Monroe is you are really desperate. How about this? You write your own version of Jimmy Arnold's life, since you seem to be the real expert here.

Moi Dennis toen ik van 1997 t/m 2006 een radioprogramma had in Stadskanaal heb ik de Southern Soul lp zeker 10x in z'n geheel voorbij laten komen. Klasse lp. Ik zag ook weer filmpjes voorbij komen van je gezin en het is echt mooi geworden. In Nederland zit ik samen met Rienk, Ag and Kate oude herinneringen op te halen elke week. We worden oud en wij (jij ook natuurlijk) hebben de mooiste dingen gezien en gehoord uit de oude countrydoos. Dus we hebben veel om terug te kijken en ook om dankbaar voor te zijn. Goed om te zien dat het jou goed gaat. Zelf maak ik nog zo nu en dan muziek met Nico Berghout (vroeger Cropswood Stringband) met nog altijd veel Johnny Cash liedjes. Dat zul je wel begrijpen. Blijf ook doorgaan met je gezin muziek te maken (moet een mooi gevoel zijn) Moi he groetjes Bert Nobbe

@@bertnobbe2746 hoi Bert! Dank je voor jouw leuke reactie. Hoop dat het heel goed gaat met jou! Ik heb Jimmy Arnold toevallig ontdekt, omdat ik een track van deze lp had op een casette tape die ik van een vriend van Charlie Moore heb gekregen in 1980 of zo. Ik heb ook een foto van Charlie en the Dixie Partners, waar hij bij zat. Ik heb toen langzamerhand zijn Rebel Lps gekocht en die vqn Cliff Waldron waar hij bij zat. Hij was een erg goede en innovatieve muzikant! Jammer van de verslavingsproblemen... net als Charlie Moore, Carter Stanley, Keith Whitley en vele anderen uit die tijd... leuk dat je af en tie oude herinneringen ophaalt met AG en Kate etc. Ik heb korte tijd met AG en Kate gitaar gespeeld in 1980 en een mini lp opgenomen. Het werd mij te duur om elk weekend van Voorburg naar Brabant te rijden om te oefenen of op te treden. Als arme student met een halve beurs kon ik de reiskosten niet te lang zelf betalen... aan Rienk heb ik jammergenoeg alleen hele slechte herinneringen... moeilijke persoonlijkheid, jammer. Allerbeste wensen, blijf gezond, fijne feestdagen en een gelukkig 2022, geniet van mooie muziek en kom eens langs huer in de bergen, altijd welkom! Ps: er staan vele tracks op youtube van ons hier onder Schut Family band, recente met gast Richard Lee. H gr., Dennis & family

Jimmy did pass away at his mom and dads home but they were living in Greensboro, N.C. He had a heart attack while eating a Turkey sandwhich. I had a tape that Doris, Jimmy's dad' gave me. I sent it to James Stiltner who has posted it on you tube. But he had straightened out and was resident musician at High Point College. He was going to daddy's church in Greensboro. First Pentecostal Holiness Church. If I recall right Jimmy had arranged to have an album cut with Ricky Skaggs and my dad, Fiddler H.O.Jenkins Jr. If my memory is correct this was to happen around April of 1993 But Jimmy was doing great at the time of his death. And he was excited about his future and playing with daddy.

I miss Jimmy.... I'm sure he got so close to my dad because he had straightened out and daddy was a pentecostal minister. Dad's great fiddling lured him also I'm sure... They had projects in the works also. Yeah Jimmy was happy and doing good at the time of his death!!

Lee was involved in the murderin of Stonewall Jackson. Lee was a vatican agent, could have won the war but didn't. Now don't run away, this is useful knowledge. Take it seriously. Part of his problem he was a Capricorn in a Cancer state, and those are opposite signs. Plus the USA is Cancer, so he had two strikes agin' 'im. And don't tell me that God ever said anythin bad about astrology because he didn't, if you check the Hebrew words. See, Keith Whitley was of the same sign as the USA so alcoholic Keith had an easier time to become accepted han had alcoholic Jimmy. See how it works? But it is not really as simple as that in every case. Ricky is a non-alcoholic Cancerian, so he stayed sober and rose to the top. That is the reason why Piscean Jackie Gleason went to Piscean Florida instead of California "like all them other stars". But also you got to understand that alcoholism is an inborn genetic disease that is brought out by separation from God. That is where the twelve steps come in by re-connectin to God, but it is a medical condition and not a matter of exercisin will power. One out of ten folks has it.

DC was a Bluegrass capital on a line from Birchmere to Georgetown to American University to Bethesda to Rockville. I don't know whether it still is. You had the Cellar Door, Birchmere, Country Gentlemen as the house band at the Irish bar on M St., Bill Harrell and the Virginians up on Rockville Pike, Seldom Scene poppin up everywhere, and Jerry Gray's daily radio program which grew bigger with time. Also a venue in Vienna I forgot the name. There was Red Fox in Bethesda, which actually was more of a spot where infiltrators who wanted to take over Bluegrass from the outside used to frequent. One man Jimmy from an "Armenian" family was a regular musician there for instance. Another sang "Sit on My Face". So it was a decadent scene at the Red Fox, but still it showed that Bluegrass was popular in Bethesda. Not far away there were bands in and around Fauquier County and the yearly Lake Whippoorwill festival out 66. One band was out of Potomac and PG county but I forgot the name of it. That guitar player taught me how to strum bluegrass with the bass notes. He was husband of famous judge Roger Taney's descendant from Potomac Maryland, also he was an incredible realist artist paintin furry animaux.

At the time he was at his lowest point. I didn't know him.

Jimmy was an old dear friend. We traveled, played, did a few other things I won't mention, but I don't regret any of it...in fact I cherish every memory. We had a band that was about a decade ahead of everybody else and had (accidentally) invented southern rock music one night by mistake. We never figured out why people liked it so much. Did you know Ronnie Welborn? Jimmy married Bobby Hick's daughter. I didn't hear that in the clip and didn't know if you were aware of that. I also noticed you mentioned Jimmy singing. :) He eventually figured that out but we never let him sing, but he would "later in the night" anyway so we kept his mic off and he never knew we did that. I remember Tommy J too. But anyway thanks for giving Jimmy the props he never got but well deserved. Boy could play anything up that had strings on it.
