This whole thing with Jim makes me laugh....everyone has had humourous stories for him.... he really does not have the musical taste as one might expect... check out this faq entry for a little insight into what he's into:
http://www.starblood.org/info/faq.shtml#5b I can tell you right off that he's a huge Tom Waits fan.... never heard him myself... but he's packed in with Neil Young, Kris Kristofferson, Nick Cave... many others. (If I remember right, they were both Nick Cave fans at one point also...) Anyway, sort of an interesting note...
