Free Music Notes for Doin' My Time

Free Music Review: Jimmie Skinner reissue long overdue
Hit: 5 Stars

Jimmie Skinner sang country when country definitely wasn't cool. His gravely voice and sidekick Ray Lunsford's electric mandolin were unique. His style was similar to that of Jimmie Rodgers and Ernest Tubb and Johnny Cash resembled him in some ways. Skinner's song-writing talents were superb. Skinner was never a superstar, but he left a body of music from country's golden years that deserves preservation and reissue. Bear Family Records scores again with "Doin' My Time", titled after Skinner's biggest song. It was a hit for Flatt & Scruggs in the late 40s and Cash made it Skinner's most rewarding royalty maker when he did it on the live Folsom Prison LP. "Doin' My Time" is a beautiful boxed set that includes six CDs and a wonderful 12" by 12" book in color. The text and photos are great and there is a discography. Five CDs include Skinner's Red Barn, Radio Artists, Capitol, Decca and Mercury releases along with some acetates preserved by the singer's family and a few bluegrass songs made for mail order sales. The sixth CD is a real treat where Skinner taped his unfinished autobiography. This set took me back 50 years to when I listened as a teenager to his songs nightly on WCKY in Cincinnati, a 50,000 watt station that reached much of the country with its Jamboree. Nearly a quarter century has passed since Skinner's death. Bear Family deserves thanks for taking us back to the life of this wonderful singer.

Doin' My Time Poster

This long-overdue collection finally restores Skinner's most important recordings to print. Five compact discs feature Skinner's classic 1947-1962 recordings for Red Barn, Radio Artists, Capitol, Decca and Mercury, along with acetates and rare bluegrass tracks sold exclusively through the Jimmie Skinner Music Center. A sixth disc features Skinner reading excerpts from his uncompleted autobiography. His compelling narrative spins tales of the Great Depression, his first efforts at songwriting and frustrating attempts to get on record, his peak years on Knoxville radio, and decision to return to his southwestern Ohio home. Working closely with the Skinner family, his former guitarist Rusty York, and others associated with the singer, country music researcher David Sax recovered unissued Radio Artists master acetates along with dozens of photos, clippings and printed souvenirs. Includes a 92-page hardcover book.
