Jim's guitar is both atmospheric and majestic. Unlike Hendrix (the king of organic guitar), you can feel he is “thinking” like a man when playing his instrument (not “screaming” like a beast). His songs are sort of stately poems. He belongs to the Tom Verlaine-Neil Young side of guitar playing (I mean, the non-animal, the almost metaphysical side).

This is one of his crowning achievements: "And the flowers they'll bloom" (1995).
