Their book entitled Country Music-an Illustrated History (the "Film" Series is based on this book I gather) is now available in Canada and the USA. Cost in each country is a shade over 50 dollars. It is about 560 pages in total and was published in 2019. However,a quick perusal of the text indicates that Jim Reeves is mentioned only six times (page 213 .one sentence;page 231 one sentence ;page 233 a small photo of Jim;page 241 one sentence about Carnegie Hall; page 266 one sentence about the plane crash;page 267 one sentence about recording a song by Miller (Roger I assume). Enough said I guess!!!!!If you want to read about Jim there is only on book on the market you should look at and buy at your convenience that is the one by Larry.(I have the first edition and I am now waiting for the Kindle version of the second printing).
I note also that Amazon has a 5 disc series based on the book and the "film". I did not see one song listed by Jim at all which tells you something about the PBS series I guess .It more or less confirms the content of one or more of the preceding posts. Sad !!!
Cheers!
