Thanks for pointing this out. For people who have never been to www.youtube.com before, you need to type in Jim's name at the top of the page. Then it will show you a list that you can scroll through. There are a lot of clips on there from other people doing Reeves songs, but you can ALSO find Gentleman Jim himself.
One of the nicest clips which I would like to call fans' attention to is a color segment of Jim's lead guitarist, Leo Jackson, appearing on Jim Ed Brown's TV show years ago. It's a good chance to see Leo singing and playing guitar with Jim Ed. I think you will agree with me that it is a very worthy tribute by Leo to his mentor Mr. Reeves. Fans of course have heard Leo on many of Jim's recordings but now you get to see him too. It's fun to watch. You'll notice when they sing "Billy Bayou," you can see Mary on the left in the background, keeping time to the song. You can see it at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYyJKNXzR1Q
Another clip shows Mary being interviewed by Jim Ed, and she introduces a segment with Jim himself. You can find it at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZooyClpfAk&feature=related
So check it out! -- Julie
