It's nice seeing him again - I'd forgotten about those legs! (smile) I miss the variety shows tv used to have where we could see talented singers, comics, impersonators, musicians, etc.
Mr. Bailey is an absoloutly BRILLIANT man!!!! Between reproducing not only the voices, but the mannerisms of these great ladies, he shows himself to be a great man and a fabulous performer... (His Phyllis Diller is to die for!)

I am a young impressionist and I always look to Jim for inspiration and guidance on how to do it and do it the best. I learnt from from his videos and talent than I did of 3 years of Drama school. He is a beautiful Genius!
Has Jim ever considered doing Bette Midler? Another diva I bet he could do well.I can just see him doing a version of her mannerisms in the 'Wind Beneath My Wings' video.I don't think Jim has added a new illusion to his act for a while,and she'd be a perfect addition,IMO!
There is no one like Jim Bailey. It's extraordinary how he gets inside these women - visually, vocally, and most of all soulfully. Sheer genius, as others have said.
this is actually him singing this is what it says on a bio by him...
"Bailey's fame began in the late 1960s when he created the illusions of singers Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, and Peggy Lee by vocally mimicking them in his own operatically trained voice"
OMG! This fellow IS Judy! Phenomenal!

I'm sure Judy is "up there" enjoying Jim's homage. She reportedly quipped the flags would fly half mast on Fire Island the day she died.

He actually knew Judy and she helped him perfect her mannerisms to even better his impersonation!
