Hank Locklin is a particular favourite of mine and here in the UK his LP "The First Fifteen Years" was released in 1972.
On it is included the track "The Country Hall Of Fame" in which he refers , amongst many others, to "Gentleman Jim".
Talking of Hank Lockiln I remember in about 1965/66 Hank appeared briefly on the "Jim Reeves Show" on pirate radio 390, in which he gave a very moving tribute to Jim saying "The late Jim Reeves is a.... was a very dear friend of mine".
