His marquee proclaims "Caution: Comedy Genius at Work!" And so it is. He is one funny guy. You can't help but leave happier than when you arrived. The show combines music and comedy and includes his two very talented children Sheaffer and G.G.
Most will remember Jim from his recordings and TV appearances in the 70's and 80's but his Branson show expands that talent to an even greater degree. He is self taught on a variety of instruments, but his banjo, guitar, and harmonica playing is highlighted in the show.
