Jim Whitman sings 'A Stolen Kiss'

     Here's a great song, beautifully sung by one of my friends, singer/songwriter Jim WhitmanJim grew up listening to the sounds of the 50's and 60's and was inspired to take up the guitar when he heard the great songs of Elton Britt, Kenny Roberts, and the crying steel guitar of the great Slim Whitman, one of my Country Music heroes.
     Jim's voice has a wide range and an expressiveness which many singers find it hard to achieve. He also discovered early on, to his delight, that he too could yodel. You don't learn to yodel, it just comes naturally. It then has to be groomed,practiced and tailored to perfection.
