    Does anybody have info regarding the subject of this song "Dirty" Jim Ross. From what I gathered from the song, he was a early Houston, TX TV celebrity. But that's about all I know.

    From my research (which did not uncover much) it seems Jim Ross was a Houston DJ in the mid 1950s. I've posted an old billboard image of a review of Tex Cherry's 1956 single release above.
