    Imagine him knowing this would be the last time he would be on stage. That was one hell of a man. RIP JIMMY

    He made us cry when he sang his ballads but here the tears are saltier than usual. A truly loving man that was truly loved.

    This is really heart-breaking. Listening to Jimmy for the first time was truly a music revelation for me. He sang with his heart and soul. LOVE FROM INDIA.

    Finally figured I could watch this today. Ah, Jimmy. Goddamnit. I don't know what hurts more -- the pain of your passing or the sweetness of your spirit.

    What strength he must have had to even show up for this event, let alone sing and speak. His spirit will be sorely missed but we have the music. RIP Jimmy.

    What a wonderful and talented musician. I am so glad that I stumbled onto his music. I wish it had been a decade sooner, still very taken by his songs and especially his words. Thank you sir.

    It was my great privilege to have heard Jimmy LaFave with his band several times and in a solo performance once. To say that he was a gifted artist with a deep, penetrating soul would be to say too little. He gave his heart every single time, whether it was a packed 'big house' or a smaller venue, as did his entire band. If you are not familiar with his music, I encourage you to make the effort to do so. For those of us who remain, we thank you.

    Just heard "Catch the Wind by Donovan and I popped my head up saying, " There's a better version as a cover. Who in the hell sang that? Oh, wait.. Jimmy sang that beauty! No disrespect to Donovan but Jimmy nailed it!!🤘 I wish I could have seen him make it to Greenville, SC.

    Until 'Walk Away Renee' came u on 'album radio' on Spotify last week, I had never heard of him. I saw this video after wanting to hear more. How very sad, he's gained another fan and I'm sorry he is no longer with us. I hope his son will indeed be nurtured.
