He wrote and first recorded the song, “Walk Right In”, which became a number one hit in 1963 for the Greenwich Village folk group, the Rooftop Singers. Jim Jackson was born in Hernando in 1878, placing him among the earliest-born artists to record blues. His most famous song, “Jim Jackson’s Kansas City Blues”, was widely covered by other artists. Jackson died in Memphis in 1933. Robert Wilkins first met Gus Cannon and Jim Jackson in 1912 while they were performing together at Mary Cotton’s Place in the West End of Hernando. Wilkins recorded eight singles including “Rolling Stone”. In the late 1930's, Wilkins became a Church of God in Christ minister and in the 1960's, he began performing his blues-inflected gospel music on the blues revival circuit. He remade his blues recording “That’s No Way to Get Along” into the gospel song “Prodigal Son”, which was subsequently covered by the Rolling Stones on their Beggars Banquet album.

(This was the family of "Belle" Edmondson, the Confederate Spy).The Church and cemetery were just below the TN - MS boundary line which was "moved" several times due to disputes by the states. At one time the church was in TN and the cemetery in MS. Today the church is Whitehaven Presbyterian Church on Shelby Drive in Memphis. The cemetery is Edmondson Cemetery in Southaven. Old tombstones read like a Who's Who list of prominent men and women, including Indian traders, politicians and Civil War veterans.

To understand why we are honored Legend Jerry Lee Lewis, you first have to understand his remarkable life. One of only 12 inducted into both the Rock-N-Roll and Country Music Halls of Fame, Jerry Lee Lewis' musical talents became apparent early on as he sang in Church on Sundays, drawing inspiration from radio shows such as the Grand Ole Opry. At age 10, Lewis’ father mortgaged the family farm to buy Jerry Lee his first piano and he eventually gave his first public performance at 14. The rest is history.

James Luther “Jim” Dickinson (1941-2009) played a central role in the North Mississippi and Memphis blues scene for many decades as a producer, vocalist and pianist. Jim Dickinson is best known as the producer of rock artists including Big Star and the Replacements and for his session work with the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. Dickinson went to the Hernando library and checked out a book on Memphis blues music and learned about the famed Memphis Jug Band. He later found Furry Lewis and learned all he could from him before going on to collaborate with Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, T-Model Ford, Sid Selvidge and Big Star among others. Sons Luther and Cody formed the North Mississippi Allstars in 1996, a leading blues rock group for the last several decades. Both have also been involved with many side projects with blues, soul and gospel artists.
