Hear a fascinating, intelligent 35 minute interview with Larry Jordan, author of the award-winning book, "Jim Reeves: His Untold Story." Mike Austin asks a wide range of very good questions and elicits some very interesting answers from the man who is undoubtedly the WORLD'S FOREMOST AUTHORITY ON JIM REEVES. Mr. Jordan is a longtime journalist and magazine publisher, who knew Mary Reeves for 33 years, and spent 13 years researching and writing a book that one award committee chairman says is on the same level as tomes by Pulitzer prize-winning authors. Larry's book is virtually a day by day account of Jim's incredible life based on more than 500 interviews plus Jim and his wife, Mary's personal diaries and private correspondence. ***THE BOOK HAS BEEN UPDATED IN LATE 2018 AND A NEW EDITION IS NOW AVAILABLE!***

It contains countless revelations, some of them explosive!

Learn about the "woman behind the man" (no, it was NOT Mary Reeves), who changed Jim's style of singing, the way he dressed, and even helped choose his repertoire. (Their love story has never been told until now!) Also find out more about the mysteries surrounding the Reeves plane crash, and astonishing evidence that Jim had connections with U.S. intelligence sources. (He and his band were even in Dallas the night before and the day of the Kennedy assassination and Jim — who was notorious for his photographic memory — even recognized Lee Harvey Oswald as having come to his dances at Dewey Groom's Longhorn Club in Dallas, whose partner had been Jack Ruby). Learn about some of the strange things that happened AFTER the plane went down, (such as the woman at the Batesville, Arkansas airport who was the last to see Jim's plane and was forced off a mountain road and killed shortly thereafter by a hit-and-run driver that has never been found), and how the FBI even explored a link to organized crime — then sealed Reeves crash records with the JFK papers!

Larry Jordan has been praised by a wide range of media, including Billboard magazine, Country Music People, and many others, for writing a very candid, balanced, and HONEST account of Jim Reeves' life. He also guested on a BBC documentary on Jim said to be heard by 12 million people! His book truly IS a "page turner"; you can't put it down once you start reading, as it is SO engrossing. It even serves as the basis for an entire chapter in a book called "Hit List" by Richard Belzer and David Wayne.

You may think you know Jim Reeves but you will be surprised what you learn about the man behind the velvet voice! You can order your copy at www.jimreevesbook.com

IMPORTANT NOTE: YouTube has added a link to where you can buy the original RCA version of "Have I Stayed Away Too Long" but this is NOT the same version that you hear at the opening of this video!!!
