One of the leading names in gospel music in the '90s and '90s, Jessy Dixon has written some of the most recognizable songs in the genre. Born in San Antonio, TX, Dixon showed a talent for songwriting at a young age, eventually moving out to Chicago as a teenager to try and make a name for himself. He was soon discovered by singer James Cleveland, who would go on to record several of his compositions. Word spread about his talents, and soon he was singing live to much acclaim. He began touring with Paul Simon as a member of his band and they continued to collaborate after the tour on the next two Simon albums. In his own career, Dixon recorded his debut single "It's All Right Now" with producer Andrae Crouch. It became a modest success, and the next few singles built on that success until he was soon one of the premiere names in gospel at the time. In 1993 he recorded his biggest single, "I Am Redeemed," an enormous success in the gospel world that stayed on the Christian charts for almost five years. He continued his solo career as well as writing songs for Amy Grant, Natalie Cole, Cher, and Diana Ross. His participation in Bill and Gloria Gaither's videos and tours have also led to many collaborations with the couple. He has continued to work in the gospel industry steadily through 2001, releasing albums and touring hundreds of days a year. ~ Bradley Torreano, Rovi

Couldn't agree with tws38 more. I'll alwasy remember his hit in the 80's Operator? Information? Give me Jesus on the line. He was an inspiration and I'll forever remember his energy. We'll meet again Jesse, in the morning.

I didn't know he passed away, I notice he wasn't on Bill Gaither's show lately. Where was the funeral held? I am looking for that Great Getting Up Morning when Jesuse shall come with a shout and the dead in Christ will rise along with those who remain and be caught up in the sky. I am Redeemed praise be to God for the talent he was given to share with the world through out his life time...
One of my favorite gospel artists. He just passed away on Sept. 26th, 2011. Lived on the southside of Chicago. He was also the minister of music for Rev. Milton Brunson and the Thompson Community singers throughout the 1980's. He wrote many hits for the choir and also worked with the Winans.
