THIS
EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTOR'S ITEM CD SET
HAD BEEN SOLD OUT -- UNAVAILABLE --
WITH USED COPIES SELLING FOR HUNDREDS
OF DOLLARS ON EBAY. BUT WE FOUND SOME
MORE COPIES (NEW, UNOPENED) WHICH WE
ARE OFFERING FOR
LIMITED TIME ONLY!
MAKE NO MISTAKE! This is not
another compilation of “greatest hits.” In The Great Jim Reeves,
VoiceMasters — which has premiered so many
NEW and previously unreleased songs by Jim —
and producer Larry Jordan, have taken many
of Mr. Reeves’ best-loved songs as well as
some obscure recordings that will be new to
you, stripped them down to get rid of some
of the original instrumentation and remastered Jim's voice
for greater clarity than ever before.
His vocals were then combined with tasteful
new accompaniment, consistent with his own
preferences. By using some of the world's
top musicians, background singers and
orchestrators, these
old tracks sparkle with a rich new
luster, making them sound like Mr.
Reeves just recorded them today!
Jim's voice truly IS timeless. You will
treasure this special, limited-edition
collection for years to come.
The Great Jim
Reeves8-CD set comes
in a handsome, unique, silver-trimmed and
high-gloss durable case which opens like a
book. The track listings are displayed on
two panels which then fold open to reveal
all 8 CDs in convenient storage pockets. There
is also a separate 48-page booklet inside
called “Songs & Recordings”
(running about 18,000 words!) in which Larry
Jordan (author of the award-winning,
672-page book, “Jim Reeves: His Untold
Story”), provides fascinating and detailed
notes on each song. He talks about who wrote
it, how it came to be written, why Jim
recorded it, behind-the-scenes anecdotes
about the recording sessions, etc. Larry is
also providing exclusively for this set new
information NOT INCLUDED IN HIS OWN BOOK.
Interspersed in the new booklet are very
rare color and b&w photos, some of which
have never been reproduced anywhere before (including
a color pic Larry took of Mary Reeves the
first time he met her when he was still a
teen and visited her at her invitation in
Nashville!)
Not since that big 16-CD boxed set was
released 25 years ago (which sells for over
$300!!!!) has anything this exciting been
made available to the fans, and we fully
expect this wonderful, BARGAIN PRICED 8-CD
collection of NEW MUSIC to be
regarded by fans with similar enthusiasm. Even if you have
purchased everything that VoiceMasters
and/or H&H Music have released on
Jim in the past, there are still 42 NEW OVERDUBS
contained in The Great Jim Reeves
that you have
never heard before and are released
here for the FIRST TIME. Plus
the bonus booklet — exclusive to this
set!

Watch an
endorsement from world
famous singers Daniel
O'Donnell and Mary
Duff. Severalyears
ago, on the
anniversary
of Jim's
passing,
Daniel did a
90-minute
tribute to Jim
from Branson,
backed by a
big orchestra,
and viewed on
PBS
stations
(public
television)
nationwide
by 60 million
Americans!
O’Donnell
(who has sold
12 million
recordings and
done more
to promote Jim
Reeves
worldwide than
any
other singer),
sells out
concert venues
from Australia
to America,
Europe to Sri
Lanka. He is
enormously
popular around
the globe,
much like
Reeves, to
whom he
devoted an
entire album.
To have Daniel
praising “The
Great Jim
Reeves”
8 CD set
— and
songstress
Mary Duff (who
sings Reeves
duets with Daniel)
— is really
extraordinary!
The sound quality on The Great Jim Reeves
is nothing short of INCREDIBLE. Hear Jim's
voice better than ever before! EVERY
track has been remastered and remixed —
not just the songs that have new music
added to them. So even the
selections you think you know will sound
“new and improved.” This really is a labor
of love involving talented people, including
current members of the Grand Ole Opry
band and other top players in Nashville,
plus musicians in Florida, the Carolinas,
Atlanta and even Europe! In some cases, the
original arrangements were augmented with
bigger string sections, better percussion,
woodwinds, brass and/or keyboards to create
a fuller, more complete sound. In other
instances, the original backings were
scrapped and whole new musical treatments
were given Jim's wonderful songs. Compare
these tracks to the originals and you'll
hear a much improved quality...for a more
contemporary listening experience —
sometimes with subtle touches, and on other
numbers there will be a BIG difference!
The CDs are organized to cover a range of
Jim's music, from the better material he
recorded in his earliest days, through his
evolution as a singer, to the smooth
“Nashville Sound,” his inspiring gospel
numbers, Jim's move in a pop direction, his
compelling narratives (his spoken words
found here are improved and simply
mesmerizing), and even folk classics. We
have also remastered his famous concert with
the Nashville Symphony Orchestra and the
outstanding live performance he gave in
Oslo, Norway in 1964. This set even includes
a 40-minute wide-ranging interview with Jim
that offers rare insights into his
personality. Need we say more? You can't find a better
collection of NEW MUSIC by Jim Reeves
anywhere else. To hear audio
samples, click the speaker icons

EXCLUSIVE OFFERING and not available
in stores or anywhere else!
