Jim Waive

Post by David Pinto »

Hey Forum,

Central Virginia lost a good man and torch bearer of Americana and Blue Ridge Country Music -Jim Waive.

Jim, had a real special way of slowing down time, making sure to acknowledge all the folks he came across. Music of all types was in his blood but he held down playing steady country tunes in Charlottesville VA for last 30 plus years and in Roanoke VA before that cutting his teeth on Rock N Roll.

Charlie Bell, played some fantastic Steel parts in his band the Young Divorcees

Humble and kind person.

I will post more links
