What do you think would have happened if Jim Reeves had not been killed on July 31st 1964? What would he have done with his career? Music Production, Acting or retire early.
Good question,Duke.Jim was about to return to South Africa to make another movie. He wanted to study acting and become a good actor. Jim was also supposed to have his own TV show, which would have been competition for Jimmy Dean's show. Jim hired Bill Walker as musical director, and he arrived in the states on the day of Jim's plane crash. I believe Bill went on to work with Johnny Cash on his TV show. Larry tells about all this in his outstanding book on Jim. If you don't have it, you should get it! It's a must have for all of Jim's fans...
