Jim is one of the funniest and kindest musicians I've ever met. So happy to see him here!

Such a humble and talented man.I love Jim & Buddy Miller's Sirius show🎸👍
Jim is a national treasure. He's also a gracious human. I saw him not too long ago with The Po' Ramblin' Boys at the Station Inn and had a nice chat with him. I just had to thank him for doin' what he does. As always Otis, great stories ..
I worked with someone who worked with Dylan. He told me every time he meets a fan he will just stand there and let them tell them things - because they always do! And then nod and walk off if he wants to. Sure enough when I ran into him once he turned around and squared off waiting to be talked to. I nodded and walked away and so do he.
I live in Ulster co New York, Levon’s home county and not a day goes by that Levon’s name comes up . Levon is one of the nicest people you could ever meet. I’ve seen him play for free in front of 10 in a local park people and he was great.

you must mean that Levon‘s name does not come up…
Thank you Mr. Gibbs for doing what you do. Bringing these stories, interviews, etc., to all of us out in the sticks, boondocks, small towns. We appreciate you.
Thanks Otis for having Jim.
Otis, you keep knocking it over the fence with your awesome guests! Love hearing from Jim , very good singer, very talented and well spoken man. I for one really appreciate what your doing 😊 Thank You
Saw Jim here in Louisville many years ago and he seems to be just a down to earth, kind guy. Thanks for the interview!
Americanafest has never been the same since Lauderdale stopped hosting. He was born to that gig.
Man I love Jim, can't wait to hear his stories
Crazy this popped up because i just went down the rabbit hole 🕊watching a lot of videos about Jim. And I ended up watching the “king of the broken hearts” which filled in a lot. Ive met Jim a few times before, and saw him play a bunch, at a festival I volunteered at for ten years that he went to. Great music great guy. I hope to write songs with him someday. Sounds good. Be blessed everybody . Thanks Otis. thanks Jim.
Jim Lauderdale and Kenny Vaughan backing up Lucinda in the Live From Austin video recorded on Dec 5, 1998 is one of my favorites. Those guys were on fire.
I LOVE JIM LAUDERDALE!!!!!! his new album is so good. Baby steps! the last song is very haunting and powerful "whats important after all". How he has made so many great albums and remains a secret from most people is beyond me.
Nice artwork on the wall back there.
See you in August, Jim. Another great interview, Otis.
I met Jim at a Gram Parsons festival in Georgia years ago. I was playing with a Parsons tribute band like every other picker that was there. Jim was extremely nice to me and introduced me to Ralph Stanley. It was the second time I had met Dr. Stanley. The first time was back in the 90’s at a theme park that straddles the Carolina’s state line. Back then there were concerts at the park and I was there early trying to find a good seat when I saw Ricky Skaggs walking towards me with Ralph. Ricky sticks out his hand to shake mine and said “ Allow me to introduce you to Ralph Stanley .” Sorry I went off topic. Jim is a great and humble guy.
Roland was a real sweetheart. One of the kindest men I ever knew.
That is funny Jim Lauderdale being told to "keep it down we're having a meeting" ....Ouch! What a decent guy...
Jim telling the story about the composition major telling him to "listen and lay back", reminded me of you being on stage with Dickey Betts. You stated that you " just kind of layed back". There were several of us that commented that you did exactly the right thing. This story reinforces your musical instinct.
Always loved Jim's vibe. He's like a musical Zelig, except he's not just there, He's PART of it. One of my fave us when he was on the original Car Wheels tour. Like hw just said, you could see his total appreciation of the Now. Smiling, digging that soli, that verse, erc. I felt Represented in a way watching him both perform and Watch at the same time. Very Zen man.
Man I love Jim Lauderdale. His record Every Second Counts got me through a real rough patch from the summer of 1995, and on through to the summer of 1996. I've been a huge fan ever since. I remember the Lonestar Cafe on the 1980's. Super cool Texas themed bar on 14th street with a stage way to small for most of the great acts that played there. This here what he's talking about was a real moment in time. Thanks for this.
Yes, this brings back memories of The Lone Star…so many great shows there ! I also met Dylan , as a fan once, after The Gershwin Tribute, outside The Brooklyn Academy Of Music, back in the day. Great story, I’ll have to post on here, on that, and my Lone Star stories. Haven’t checked out Otis’s site in awhile. Great content you offer Otis !
OMG!!! I’ve looooooved Jim Lauderdale since FOREVER!!! ❤❤❤
More Levon stories!
There is a tape circulating of Dylan sitting in with Rick Danko & Levon Helm at the Lone Star Cafe - it may be this show Jim Lauderdale is describing.

yes. there are photos too. i used to remember everything bob related-april of 83, i think.
I met Jim at Carter’s Vintage Guitars two years ago! He tried to buy the 1964 Martin 00-18 I was in the process of buying 😂 Love that guy
I loved the Lone Star Café! Saw some great shows. For those who forgot, it was the one on 5th ave and 13th st with the huge Iguana on the roof. One of the last shows I saw was great folkie Eric Andersen (and friend of/collaborator with Danko) Lucy Kaplansky opened for him. They both still perform. I saw a Danko/Helm show there, but wasn’t fortunate enough to be there in ‘83 or ‘88 when Dylan joined in. RIP Danko and Helm.

I saw some great shows there myself. I had a five piece and we opened for Buckwheat Zydeco and Robert Gordon. Good times!
My friend went to this show at the Lone Star Cafe in 1983 to see Levon and Rick and Dylan showed up. Played Your Cheating Heart, Hand Jive and Ain't No More Cane. I'll have to tell him there's a Jim Lauderdale connection. Wish I had been there!
Another great one Otis. Thanks Jim.
First heard him on A Town South of Bakersfield. Talented and versatile and humble; what’s not to like?

That's where I first heard him too!
I just want you to know, I love your insights with these various artists. I love the history of the music, and you represent it all so well. Thank you Otis.
Thanks Otis,Jim is great.The Lone Star was on the corner of 5th and 13th, seen everyone there all the old time blues guys would come thru Levon, cool local bands, ect. The bar was right in front of the stage so you could meet all your musical heroes.Met Roni Stonemam(Hee Haw banjo player and comedian) at a Charlie Mussewhite show, super cool missing tooth and all!!
Otis, you are killing it. This and Kenny’s latest made my California Friday night.
I had a ticket to go see Jim at a little club downtown right before the Covid hit and it got cancelled. I'll get to see him though, sooner or later.
Makes me nostalgic for the halcyon days at The Palomino in the 80s-90s with Jim, Dale Watson, Dwight, Lucinda, Rosie Flores, etc.
Glad you interviewed Jim. Super
Jim has always been so nice dating back when i use to see him play in L.A. all the time and now that he is the huge successfu songwriting machine, he was still so gracious when i saw him a few months back in Tucson.
Another great one, Otis. I first met Jim working on an Elvis Costello project that T Bone Burnett was producing at Sound Emporium and we wound up being neighbors in Belmont-HIllsboro and used to run into each other at the bank.
Planet of love and whisper cds😮 in my humble opinion are as good as music can be..❤
Such wise words 🥰
My goodness that first '83/84 area deal sounds amazing. Wish there was a recording capture of that little deal. .... Awesome that you were there either way. That second one is funny & cool as well. Thanks much for sharing it all. ... Thanks to you Mr. Otis as well. Appreciated as always
Great songwriter
That was fun!
Jim Lauderdale??!? Wow. And I thought the channel couldn't get any better.
What a great interview. As always. ✌❤
Been a fan of this guy since King of Lonesome Hearts (especially fond of the followup, Pretty Close to the Truth) and am onboard for pretty much anything having to do with Buddy Miller. Great to see him here -- will check out his new album.
Hey Jim! Awesome to see you here and that La Terzza Classe shirt.
❤Jim Lauderdale is a quality guy
Being so near to Bob Dylan my heart would stop beating and my hands would turn cold.
Interesting interview and love listening to this video ❤❤
GREAT interview.
wow what a gentle gentleman !
There's quite a chasm between Roland White and George Jones.
Ask him about Ralph Stanley. Lauderdale is a fantastic singer.
so wise so lucky
MOR JIM LAUADERDALE...Ask about Robert Hunter writing Collab...loved his sets at this years Merlefest sets!
Lauderdale’s great !
And Jim played in The Band with Levon and Rick and Garth on the Jericho album didn't he? One.
I heard Bob in an interview and he said he couldn't write again the songs he wrote in 60s. Bob said he didn't know how he wrote the songs.

Yes, the 60 Minutes interview. I'll never forget the look on his face and sound of his voice as he described this. Worth looking up btw.
The "Lone Star Cafe' in NYC ? .... between 43rd & 44th Street. DAMN ! What was the Name of that Very Cute Girl, that ran that place. I worked for a while at the Sam Goody, down that street. So Did Steve Mandell, untill We heard His Musical Collaboration with Eric Weissberg, for the movie- "Deliverence" on the Radio. Then the DJ said that was "Dueling Banjos' At which point Steve said, "Dueing Banjos, Shit ! That was Me & Eric. I'm Calling my Lawyer, NOW !"

I thought it was at the corner of 5th Ave & 13th St, sort of where Greenwich Village meets Union Square. Down near/surrounded by The New School. But it was a long time ago, when I was there...

Hey Jimmy - Hit me up in IDY
weird, where time served muso's stand in awe of 'tip of the spear' artists and then generally between themselves recognise each others 'bones' and influences, where is the front row seat ( or preferably just in front of the mixing desk) fan, I guess in the great scheme of things, seen; i guess just like a dumb dog chasing a car.
Cool stuff. 👍🤪🏳️🌈
Two of the most disappointing shows I’ve ever were both headlined by Bob Dylan. I’m not saying he’s overrated but he’s gone 50 years on 15 years worth of momentum.

the man has played nearly 4,000 shows that are accounted for over 62 years. i've seen 2 that weren't life changing but i've also seen him over 30 times and many were spectacular.

Dylan is well-known for inconsistent shows.
