You know it's a miracle to have lived his life, it's another miracle to be able to remember and recall with the clarity he has, the events of that life, and it's yet another miracle that through this medium it gets to be shared with the rest of us. Record this man every day and put those tapes in the Library of Congress for people to listen to forever.
You’re doing the important work Otis.
THANK you.
This man has an absolute beautiful soul. ❤
I've really enjoyed hearing Jim Rooney tell stories. That barn is pretty cool too.
Jerry Jeff Walker holds such a special place in my heart. When his album with "LA Freeway" came out it was the sound track to my besties and me summer of turning 18, such good times. She died young but I always play that song when I want to really feel her (I prefer Guy Clark's version but JJW version cranked up is pretty perfect)
God, I love listening to this man speak. the knowledge and compassion blows me away. To see him choke up about that Pete Seeger performance hits close to home. I have had the privilege to see hundreds of great shows, lots of them I may not have attended had my sister not been in the box office. If one song moved me, whether the artist, the crowd, or both, it was worth getting out, and making the show. Last year my wife and I saw Marty Stuart and his FS, and they played Tomahawk, I had never heard it, I was 5th row, in front of Kenny, and was just floored by the musicianship! Saw them a couple of weeks ago and they were tight as ever. Music is the great common denominator, a shared thing, and that's what makes it such a mystical thing. More Jim Rooney stories please! Have a great weekend.
Absolutely More JIM ROONEY ........
Jim Rooney is a treasure. Record him for posterity. Some of us already know, but in the future we will need him.
I saw Jerry Jeff in early 1974 at The Stables in East Lansing MI. What a show! The music just POURED out of him. That was some true talent!
I have a good story about Jerry Jeff and Dennis Hopper on the Taos Plaza in the ‘70s ..Woodys Tavern ..alcohol and coke ..fun memory
Oh, this man was there through it all. He knew the singers, the players. I don’t suppose he’s written a book? Thank you, Otis and Jim.🤗
I know!!! I love the Barn!!
Thanks Otis. I really enjoy Jim's stories and story telling!
You got that right.
Thank you both, the history you are providing is to keep meaning vital.

Fantastic. Thank you.
Just Wonderful and what a great guy !
Beautiful interview
Great discussion this morning! Needed it. a water colorist fantastic explanation
"Perfection is not that interesting ... it's all about personality ... and heart ... And that's what you want." -- Jim Rooney
Boom! Morning all.
Thanks Jim, Otis, Another great Saturday start.
Two stories: 1: We were in Belize and saw Jerry in a restaurant when he had a house there. 2: My wife is a fly fisher. I ordered a CD from Amos and with the check I included her take on a wooly bugger ( a fly fishing fly) for him. We got the CD and a response that it freaked them out when they opened the envelope and saw that ugly bug! I hope Amos caught one fish with it.
A Man Must Carry On… a favorite of mine…
Great stories about Jerry Jeff Walker…
Memories shared… thank you…
🌎🕊️ 🌜🌞🌛
Thanks to your video, I bought his book. What a wonderful story, I felt like I was watching Forrest Gump, who had witnessed so many historic events that it seemed like he had lived too lifetimes in one!
Thank you so much, Otis😢😅
This was excellent !!!
You got that right.
Great to hear these stories from someone that was there when the American music scene was taking off.
8:29 --- I presume that it's the Tønder Festival, which is still running. Pete Seeger's appearance was in 1990. If Mr Rooney chokes up, after all these years, why can't we.
Beautiful man. Jim has sure got a way of tellin stories.
What a beautiful dude. WOW. I'll take every story he's got please, and I suspect that'll take a WHILE.
good find brother otis as weve said perfection is a fallacy as well as not interestng this fellar is right up our alley bravo the heart the soul real sjocr
“Bluegrass Rest Home”
I wanna’ go there..😂
Lmao
Bloody fantastic. Thanks Otis!
I wanted it to keep going but that was the perfect place to end the video. Bravo.
Fantastic
Austin here. Ol’ Scamp was quite a guy. Saw him often at many venues, hanging at the Texas Chili Parlor too.
Mornin'
Happy Saturday
Thank you, Otis 🙏🏻🤍
Love hearing this. Thanks for your work. What's the story on the barn?
Inspiring!
"perfection is not that interesting" yes!
Nice Barn !
