Added some fun humor to Richard and Karen Carpenter's road show(s)/concert(s) with his guitar, harmonica, and singing of quirky sons. Loved it!

I guess this is a little late. I am sorry for the loss of jim bob white, father.The first concert i ever went to was at rural special high school, in 1977 when Tony Joe White played a concert to rise money for his oldest son(Jim Bob White) class trip. Back at this time I started to love Tony Joe White voice and his music. Yes i can say Jim bob white is a high school friend.
