Most people think of Jimmy Carter as a Southern peanut farmer, a home-builder for the unhoused, or a Sunday School teacher. They might allow that he knows a few old hymns, but they do not think of him as a rebellious rock ‘n’ roller or a jazz aficionado. They might not pair him with Willie Nelson or Rosalyn Cash, Bob Dylan or the Allman Brothers.
