Clicking on the links in bold coloured text will lead you to the lyrics of the songs.
The Jim Glaser/Jimmy Payne song "Woman, Woman" was featured on various albums by the Glaser Brothers including the MGM soundtrack album for the movie "Tick, Tick, Tick."
Dottie West recorded "And I'm Still Missing You" on the 1970 RCA album "Forever Yours." She also recorded it as a duet with Jimmy Dean and Jimmy recorded it on his 1971 RCA album "These Hands."
Cajun artist Doug Kershaw recorded the Jimmy Payne and Dale Vest song "Mansion In Spain." It was originally released on the "Hot Diggity Doug" album and later issued on a CD called "Diggy Liggy Lo."
Ray Price recorded Jimmy's song "Sunday." It appeared on the 1973 album "She's Got To Be A Saint" on Columbia KC-32033.
Nashville based pedal steel guitarist Lloyd Green recorded "Woman, Woman" on the 1968 Chart Records album (CHS 1006) "Mr Nashville Sound."
Country Music Hall of Fame member Bill Anderson recorded "And I'm Still Missing You" which must have been a great honour for Jimmy when you consider how many great songs Bill has written over the years. It appeared on the Decca album "Love Is A Sometimes Thing" (DL 75206) and he told us that, even though the album has long been out of print, many of his fans tell him that his 'older' material does appear on eBay from time to time!

In a newsgroup posting back in August 1999, Jim Swanson, who co-wrote "How Do You Tell Someone You Love" with Jimmy, tells how the song came about. He says: "I was working as a disc jockey on a country music radio station in Chico, California in 1983. I had a discussion with a friend of mine about him possibly leaving his wife. He made the statement: "How Do You Tell Someone You Love You're Not In Love Anymore?"
Jim added: "That statement stuck in my head for weeks and I wrote a rough lyric to it. Then on a promotional phone call from Jimmy Payne in Nashville, I mentioned this to him. To make a long story short Rod Rishard recorded the song and it made it to number 66 on the Billboard Country charts. I really got lucky on that one," recalls Jim.
Jimmy Payne says: "Jim sent me the lyric and I thought it was a great title. I used only two lines of his lyric and the title and I wrote the song around that." The single by Rod Rishard on Soundwaves Records was co-produced by Jimmy Payne and Joe Gibson.
