Reviews

"Wonderful fellow with an interesting life equals great story." - John Prine "As a singer and entertainer, record producer and song publisher, Jim Rooney has been right smack in the middle of so much authentic American music for over 50 years. His guiding hand has helped launch and expand the careers of a host of great artists and I can't imagine the arc of my own success without the benefit of Jim's natural musical integrity and generous support." - Pat Alger, member of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Georgia Music Hall of Fame
