Does Everyone Stare

Minds (Music?) Monday
I just love listening to early interviews with Jim. Just…you can hear all the emotion and drive in him. His intelligence and just…yeah. I love him. I really, really love him. He’s just beautiful. The one I’ve shared first. I mean, there’s no talk of money or any of that. It’s just wanting to play…
