Worldwide Fan Reaction to 8 CD "Great Jim Reeves" Set

As the anniversary of Jim's passing approaches July 31st, radio stations worldwide continue to play selections from the unique 8-CD set, “The Great Jim Reeves,” that features 170+ tracks, including 92 new overdubs and absolutely STUNNING sound quality. This is indisputably the BEST Jim Reeves release since the Bear 16 CD set issued over 20 years ago.

(Incidentally, Bear's marketing efforts regarding that old, overpriced $400 box set are MISLEADING. They state: “This is the complete career retrospective. Complete!...All the singles, all the albums, all the unissued titles we could find...and all other demo recordings.” This has been proven WRONG time and time again by what my label, VoiceMasters, has released — including many NEW songs by Jim that Bear does not have.)

Anyway, “The Great Jim Reeves” 8 CD set is bargain priced at only $49.95. That's about 23 cents per song...far less than a digital download. Jim's voice has been remastered for the best clarity and richness you have ever heard, then combined with tasteful new instrumentation by current members of the Grand Ole Opry band, Atlanta jazz musicians, folks from the Southern Gospel field and Europe. 

The packaging is unique, and includes a 48 page full color booklet. Here is just a PARTIAL list of the feedback we have received from radio stations around the world who are playing “The Great Jim Reeves.” Order it today at: www.greatjimreeves.com
