Jimmy Tarbutton got his start in Memphis music by playing in a few garage bands including the Jimmy Hart led Gentrys. He and two others quit the Gentrys to form one of the best Memphis bands of the seventies, Edgewood. He worked at Jerry Williams’ TMI studios for a while before moving to Nashville seeking work as an engineer and producer.

Jimmy has worked with José Feliciano, JJ Cale, and the Oak Ridge Boys to name but a few. He shared a lot of great stories in this interview and I enjoyed talking with him after all these years. I hope you enjoy this episode.
