There were three different American artists called Jimmie Rodgers: a country singer born in 1897 who was known as The Singing Brakeman, The Blue Yodeler and The Father of Country Music (he died in 1933 and is responsible for all the early hits here); a 1950s pop singer born in 1933 who had hits from 1957 to 1967; and a blues guitarist, who usually rendered his name as Jimmy Rodgers or James Rodgers, was born in 1924 who played in Muddy Waters band (he died in 1997).

Hi,

You need to read the FAQ about song titles.

Double Listing - The Wreck Of the John B

Looks like #21 & #35 still need to be combined. Thanks.

Yes, we missed one, thanks

Double Listing - The Wreck Of the John B

#21 & #35 are the same.

We have edited the data. Also this is the same song as The Beach Boys "Sloop John B", so we've changed that as well. This note should help users understand why they have a song called "I Wanna Go Home (The Wreck of the 'John B')".

Jimmie Rogers Albums+

I have a lot of his albums my papa had before he died and a lot of other singers from the past

There were two song artists with the name Jimmie Rogers. I believe all the hits from 1957 should be separated out as they relate to the younger Jimmie ( no relation )

You are correct, there are entries here from at least two of the three major American musicians known as "Jimmie Rogers". However the way the data is stored for the site makes it difficult to create multiple artist pages using the same name, so rather than doing that we've added a comment to tell users how to interpret the data on the page.

Thanks for the clarification.

Jimmie Rogers of the 1920s and 1930s.

I am interested in purchasing some records of Jimmie Rogers but I don't want CDs that have duplicates on them. Is ther any way to get three or four of his CDs withouts duplicates?
