Remembering Jim Reeves
To mark the 45th Anniversary of Jim Reeves' tragic death on July 31st 1964, H&H Music have released a new single featuring one of Jim's earliest and last recordings.
"How Many Tears From Now" was recorded in 1947 at the radio station where Jim started his DJ career. The recording was only found recetly, whilst "Subconcious Mind" was recorded just a month before his death.
Scotland's Celtic Music Radio honoured JIm, with no less than 10 tracks on this week's programme, and invited listeners to choose the best European "Jim Reeves" between Scotland's Al Grant, England's Paul wheater, Ireland's Matt Leavy and Norway's Arne Benoni.
Al Grant was a narrow winner over Paul Wheater.
