Jim Garrett playing "Stuck on You" at "Oscar's" in Reutlingen

When Darren and I arrived the first time at Ste. Maxime in 2002 we passed "Le Wafou", a brasserie with live music.
We decided to stay a bit and were looking for a table when suddenly Jim appeared and started to sing.

Darren and I looked at each other and we both thought the same: "What a voice!"

Through all the years we have been listening to Jim now we have always enjoyed his versatility, being able to perform an enormous repertoire of more than 800 songs - all-time-favourites like "Last Resort", "Hallelujah" or "In the Ghetto", but also the current chart breakers.

Actually, quite often we do prefer Jim's interpretation to the original, e.g. those of the Chris de Burgh ballads like "Spanish Train" or "Crusader", Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version of "Somewhere over the Rainbow" or the songs in his "Monte Carlo Night" programm.

In 2006 Darren and I both found ourselves in rather challenging professional situations with 4 flats at a time to cope with.
But fair enough one of our four flats was close to Reutligen, so we just had a short trip to drive over when Jim was performing at the "Oscars" on 18th April 2006.
It simple felt good to let ourselves carry along by his voice and music ....
