James was one of those performers that if you heard him once, you found a way to see him again and again. My wife and I loved dancing to Slim. We were fortunate to sit poolside with he and his guitar before an Ameripolitan awards show. Always a gentleman, he asked if we minded if he sang a couple songs. (Thinking to myself, are you kidding, how much can we pay for this honor.) Respectfully, James would take his hat off when being introduced to a lady. My one other memory. During James' set, one person kept hollering over and over for a song. At the break he sat down with us and in a low voice uttered, "There's no way I'm playing that song for him." James Hand, a Texas Legend.

A modern legend. I still regret missing the chance to see him. Unfortunately I didn’t know he was playing only 30 miles away. 🤷♂️😢❤️🙏

I'm prayin' to God but I'm callin' for you I swear that I've tried everything but suicide And every day is still the same With each new tear, the same old pain is here Oh death, you'll have so little left to claim I stare in the mirror at a man I hardly knew I'm prayin' to God but I'm callin' for you I swear that I've tried everything but suicide And every day is still the same With each new tear, the same old pain is here Oh death, you'll have so little left to claim I stare in the mirror at a man I hardly knew I'm prayin' to God but I'm callin' for you I'm prayin' to God but I keep callin' for you

@@palandpalette2136I first learned of James because I'm a huge fan of Cindy's steel playing, so started checking him out some seven or eight years ago and have been a fan ever since. I got a real shock when I belatedly learned of his passing. James just seemed to have a really great air about him and he should have been so much bigger than he was. You are so very lucky to have me the great man himself.

@@Venetiababy1 Redd Volkaert is actually a friend of mine. In fact, the amp I was playing through here used to belong to him. I used to kick on some tremolo on two or three songs that James Hand did, this being one, and no other effects for some three and a half hours of what were typically four hour shows. Sue me. I've heard my friend Redd play the song dozens of times. But I don't copy what other players do. I play a song the way I feel I want it to sound. Trust me, plenty of people like what I do just fine. James Hand was a great artist and friend who is no longer with us. I just find it odd that someone would use a random KZbin video of show from a deceased artist (this was actually the last live show he ever played before he passed, btw) as a soapbox to come and critique the guitar playing of a total stranger.

Me and my buddy drove from Missouri to Texas to see James Hand play at The little longhorn saloon Years ago. They were having bad flooding, and he didn’t make it. The bartender saw how sad I was, and called him up and handed me the phone. I got to talk to him for a few minutes, and I told him his music touched my heart. I just found out he passed yesterday. I always dreamed of sitting around a camp fire, having a cold beer with him , while he played an acoustic guitar. Maybe someday if I make it to heaven. Rip James you will be missed
