The Great Filling Station Holdup
Josh PachterJimmy has also written novels, children's books, memoirs, and a stage musical based on Herman Wouk's Don't Stop the Carnival, and his family-friendly concerts almost always sell out to audiences comprised of a mix of dedicated Parrotheads, casual fans, and newbies. In The Great Filling Station Holdup, editor Josh Pachter presents sixteen short crime stories by sixteen popular and up-and-coming crime writers, each story based on a song from one of the twenty-nine studio albums Jimmy has released over the last half century, from Leigh Lundin's take on "Truckstop Salvation" (which appeared on Jimmy's first LP, 1970's Down to Earth) to M.E. Browning's interpretation of "Einstein Was a Surfer" (from 2013's Songs from St. Somewhere). If you love Jimmy's music or crime fiction or both, you'll love The Great Filling Station Holdup.
