    I have been binge-watching the old TV series Highlander. I'm on season 3 now episode 4. Jim has been on the last few episodes but in this one he is playing and singing. I thought it looks like he's really playing and singing so I looked him up and so it is! What a great talent!

    When there's no more immortals to watch over, get to playing the blues. (Late geeky joke is late and geeky.)
    Did not know the man rocked the blues so much. Gonna have to add him to the library for sure.
