5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfying Entertainment, March 14, 2006

By	Mr. Technic (Sunrise, Florida) - See all my reviews

Almost everything affects people differently partly because of their life experences.

Well, I was grown up around Jim Reeves' soothing voice. Uniquely, this voice is for me and happens to be for many others as well.

Must I try to describe why? I could give it a try, but right now I'm kind of not wanting to, howerever this I'll say.

Music as a whole is an illusion, it can make you feel all kinds of emotions. And where does it gets you? Maybe no where geographically, but psychicly it can covers millions of emotional distance.

Some music can just irritate you when you're tired or in some other discontent frame of mind, but I've got to say Mr. Jim Reeves has a voice you might want to stay away from, if you're afraid falling in love with a sentimental and peaceful mode.

If you have never heard
Jim, and I would even have to asked, "where have you been?" just listen to any song emits from his vocal cord, its easy to become a Jim's favorite listener. He's really kind of addictive.

4.0 out of 5 stars DVD - Jim Reeves story, February 24, 2005

By	Linda Walker (Newfoundland) - See all my reviews

I was so pleased with this DVD on Jim Reeves. It really showed the man himself in action and his wonderful voice. It was fun to learn more about him. However, I would have liked to have more PERSONAL information - like from his wife (what kind of husband he was? Did they have children?). This DVD is definitely worth the purchase and I plan to play it over and over again.
