my family has been friends with Jim and his family ever since i can remember, he IS blind, and not really sure what you think he would gain by pretending.
my dad used to sing this song to me...i miss him soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much, God bless...7...333=love always
IMO he is clearly 'looking' at the fretboard as he plays. Most of the truly blind musicians position their head according to hearing and not sight as they play. watch vid's of Jeff Healey, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, etc....
faking blind is a pretty common street con, nice twist doing it in a church though.
Hit some good Travis licks, Jimmy. Thanks..

For those who do not believe that Jimmy is blind, he is related to my husband, and having spent time with him, I can testify that he is indeed blind.

this guy is a slick picker for sure ! but if he's blind why does he lead his fingers with his eyes ? never seen a blind musician do that.

Surely he's not lying about being blind. Must've learned to play before he went blind? Maybe just a habit?
