James Albert "Jim" Beck (11 August 1916 — 3 May 1956) was a country music talent agent, record promoter, recording studio owner, A&R engineer, record producer, and music publisher from Dallas, Texas. Born in Marshall, Texas, Beck is credited with discovering and, in 1950, being the first to record Lefty Frizzell. He is also credited for introducing Frizzell and Ray Price to Frank Jones (1926–2005) of Columbia Records, which led to their first major recording contracts. Marty Robbins recorded his first hit — "I'll Go on Alone" — at Beck's studio. Beck's studio also recorded a few hits by Carl Smith at his studio. Record labels and producers who recorded at Jim Beck Studios included Decca (via Paul Cohen), Bullet, King, Imperial, and Columbia Records.〔"Ray Price," by Don Cusic, ''The Western Way'' (magazine), Vol. 20, Issue 2, pg. 18 (Spring 2010) 〕〔''(Voices of the Country: Interviews With Classic Country Performers, )'' Michael Streissguth, Routledge pg. 147 (2004) 〕 Between 1954 and 1956, Frankie Miller recorded a series of singles for Columbia at Beck's studio.〔''(Country Music: The Rough Guide, )'' by Kurt Wolff & Orla Duane, Rough Guides, pg 131 (2000) 〕 == Jim Beck Studio == Beck built his second studio — the "Jim Beck Studio" — in 1950 at 1101 Ross Avenue in Dallas.〔''Country: The Music and The Musicians — From the Beginnings to the '90s,'' Country Music Foundation, pg. 118 (1994) 〕〔("The Professional Work of Jim Beck," ) Roots of Country Music — ''The Internet Encyclopedia of Original Country Music'' (publisher) (retrieved 1 May 2013)〕 His first studio had been on Main Street in Dallas.〔"The Jim Beck Dallas Studio," ''The Journal of Country Music'', Country Music Foundation, Vol. 11, Issue 1, pg. 1923 (1986) 〕〔("Jim Beck," by Martin Donell Kohout, from ''The Handbook of Texas Music, Second Edition )'' edited by Laurie E.
