Thanks, Larry. You answered a lot of my questions, and so did the tape of your phone call with Mary. I didn't realize that tape was there. I don't know how I missed it, but I just listened to the entire thing, and it was very interesting. I do agree with you that so many of today's country singers like Garth Brooks, although they certainly have some talent, they are NOWHERE NEAR being in the same league as Jim. It astounds me how Garth and some of the others in Country music today have had such amazing success, and they are only fair at best. It certainly shows that the general music buying public has lowered their standards since Jim was around, and will buy just about anything.
