(PR) For the very first time, in a music career that spans five decades, James Luther Dickinson -- Jim Dickinson�s recording artist alter ego -- has made an album that will be released by the same label as his previous record.

It was just last year that Memphis International unleashed Jungle Jim & The Voodoo Tiger on an unsuspecting world and that album was only his third in 34 years. Now, a little over a year later, comes Killers From Space, a new set of songs collected and cultivated by Dickinson and produced by the artist, along with Memphis International�s David Less. Release date is September 18th.

Dickinson, producer (Big Star, Replacements, Green On Red, Ry Cooder, The Replacements, Mudhoney, Alvin Youngblood Heart, etc.); session man (Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Duane Allman) and cultural observer (�Memphis Saturday Night�) says Killers is different from his previous albums in another way.

�This is the first of my own records that wasn�t agenda-driven; I had nothing to prove. Like Topsy, this one just grew. I�m thinking that either nobody will �get it� or it�ll be declared my best record ever,� Dickinson predicts. �The album�s title is derived from a notion we have that whatever band is on the bill with you is, inevitably, a group called something like �Killers From Space.� In this case, the songs seem to have come from outer space so the title applies in that way.�
