One of pillars of the post-Sun Records Memphis music scene, Jim Dickinson (http://www.exclaim.ca/articles/generalarticlesynopsfullart.aspx?csid1=135&csid2=844&fid1=40573), died Saturday (August 15) at the city's Methodist University Hospital as a result of complications from a triple bypass heart surgery. Along with his sons Luther and Cody of the North Mississippi Allstars, Dickinson leaves behind a remarkable musical legacy (http://redkelly.blogspot.com/2009/08/betty-lavette-nearer-to-you-silver-fox.html) that directly impacted the careers of everyone from the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan to Big Star and the Replacements.
