Guide Review - Jim Reeves - The Essential Jim Reeves
His clear speaking voice got him an announcing job at KRGI in Henderson, Texas. From there, he started playing records and singing on the radio. As is singing talent developed, he recorded for a small label in Houston called Macy's. From there, he moved on to RCA Records, and the rest is Jim Reeves musical history.
Even though his actual recording career only lasted 11 years, he left us with decades of memorable music. That legacy is reflected in this 2-CD collection of his best work. With early hits like "Bimbo," "Beatin' On The Ding Dong," "Penny Candy" and "Drinking Tequila." Jim Reeves started out as more of a novelty recording act. It was later at RCA where he refined his singing style. You can hear that smooth singing style in such classics as "Four Walls," "Two Shadows On Your Window," "I'm Gettin' Better" and of course "He'll Have To Go." Jim Reeves. August 20, 1923 - July 31, 1964.
