you can tell Jim is so loved still by so many because the views are high on his videos and the dislikes are very low/few. How many artists has those statistics?
I just love Jim Reeves music. It is honestly like no other. Who can sing damned near everything flawless? I don't know of many I can tell you that. When I listen to Jim's material I just close my eyes and smile and I feel such a presence flow over me. It is such therapy for my soul.

We had all his vinyl LPs when I was a kid. I couldn't wait to start buying them on cd when cd's came out in the late eighties. But in listening to the cds I found there was no improvement in the sound quality of the vocals.
Then I figured out why...there was nothing to improve upon. Jim's voice was already perfect.
@fek2000 I first heard Jim Reeves on 8 track cartridge - remember them? Then I dwitched to vinyly, searching everywhere for imports and rare issues then, like you, I started stated all over again for cd re-issues; every song brings back happy memories of the seventies.
I was 5 years old when my father plays this song a hundred times over and over again..I hated it at that time....but now, I loved this song, it makes me cry, cause it remembers me how much my father loves my mother..thank for posting
Thanks for a very nice video - we Jim fans, I believe, really appreciate the effort you've made for us - I especially liked the Jim/Dean Manuel & Jim/Mary pics.
I think it's really nice to know that Jim's not forgotten.
Another lovely song from Jim Reeves as usual, & love the pictures too, especially the one with his wife Mary.Thankyou Ian for posting this lovey, lovely song. - Geena.
You're very welcome Geena; We owe Mary Reeves so much for keeping Jim's music alive after his death, the least I/we can do is to include her memory alive as well.

Anita Kerr was a VERY talented arranger,but the background vocal on this song (and a few others by Jim) was Winnifred Breast,who died last year!

That wasn't Anita Kerr,that was Winnifred Breast,who also sang on 'When You Are Gone' and a few more,she died last year,great voice also!
Superb recording all round,should have been released as a single after 'I Won't Forget You',the B-side could have been 'Memories Are Made Of This'.

Far superior to his 50s version. He had not really become the "Jim Reeves" then we all accept and know now and identify with.
