Jimmy LaFave

We still miss him terribly

My wife and I had the pleasure of first seeing Jimmy at a 1999 outside festival in New Jersey along with our then seven month old twins. Later, we had the pleasure of him conducting a sing along to This Land is Your land at the Annual Texas book festival in Austin, Texas, as well as seeing him at another another New Jersey show at Monmouth University. As a bit of a Bob Dylan fan, Jimmy was one of the few singers who could make those songs his own. A great talent, and a sad loss. But, the...

His music soothed me. Peace to the LaFave family.

Had Jimmy Lafave cd Road Noval in my collection. Played it during UK lockdown unknown to me Jimmy had past away.
Researched more of Jimmy's music and know own 15 of Jimmy Lafave's cd's. I have especially enjoyed all of The Trail cd's, just wish i had seen this exceptional brilliant musician with a singing voice i adore.
Loving playing Jimmy's music ar home abd in my car. A legend.

The dark pandemic brought me the darker news of you. I learned of your passing three years after your death. RIP, Sweetheart.❤

First heard Jimmy's music in Stillwater OK in 1976. He just popped up on Amazon Music, his sweet sound brought back great memories! RIP

From dancing at the Hole in the Wall the first time I heard him, to sitting on a tailgate with him at a campfire in Kerrville trying to convince him to play, to the time he and Barbara very kindly gave me a ride from the Cactus Cafe one late night, I have many wonderful memories of Jimmy and I am so very, very sorry to hear of his passing.

Thank you Sweet Jimmy, for all the moments of joy we received from your gift of song. We are so sorry to know you're gone, but we will lift a glass to you each time we hear your perfect voice singing a perfect song.

I cannot express the sadness in my heart. One of the truly greatest talents in the world. His music, his kindness, his humor will be missed.
