As far as I know, he's still around the Nashville area. He was originally a member of the 1950s/1960s era brother/sister trio known as The Browns (Jim Ed, Bonnie, & Maxine Brown - great harmonizing). Two of their better known recordings were "The Three Bells" & "Scarlett Ribbons." When his two sisters decided to retire from the music business, he went out on his own. Most of his early work, including that with the Browns, was recorded for the RCA label. I'd check with the Ernest Tubb Record Shop in Nashville to see what they might still have available.

Jim Ed is still,alive & kickin',&workin' the Opry. My first steel job,when I arrived in "Nashburg" in '68,was w/ J.E. I was w/ him for,about 3½ mos.
I had to leave him,on account of illness.
Yeah,......he finally got sick of me!!
BTW Dean,since you're in S.A.Tx.,say hi to my ol' buddy,Randy Reinhardt,would ya? Thanx.

Gee Smiley,I don't think Jim Ed knew what he had at that famous moment.Seems like you should have lasted 4 months at least. If Jim Ed only knew what he was releasing to the world of Country Music ,the WFSR.He may have had second thoughts Come to think of it maybe he did.

Jim Ed is and always has been one of my favorites. I still think the original "POP A TOP" is the best. I have a CD called THE ESSENTIAL JIM ED BROWN. Lot of good songs, lot of good music.
Jim Ed also did quite a few duets with Helen Cornelius in the early and mid 80's. They had a very good sound together in my opinion. But opinions are like ------ I guess. Everybody has one.

Jeff, I really did not know Nat Stuckey did this song too. I guess I just listened to Jim Ed sing it for so many years that I thought he was the only one until Alan Jackson. I think you've just sent me on a mission to find Stuckey's version. Thanks for the correction. One can never have to many versions of "POP A TOP" laying around.
