Album Notes

Jim Becker is a singer/songwriter who puts his cards on the table with this clean, mellow five-song effort. "Grace State of Mind" reminds us of John Denver (is it a coincidence Becker is from Colorado?) in its honesty, sensitivity and melody. The relationship ballad, "Falling For Me," showcases this performer's plaintive vocal sincerity and assured guitar work. By and large, there is an audience for Becker's mature music and he shows promise. He has most recently in August 2002 been seen as a soloist at performer at the POPKOMM stage in Cologne, Germany received air play on the Armed Forces Radio Network, Europe. In April 2002 Jim had the opportunity to spend a day and meet Vince Gill and Amy Grant at their home in Nashville and possibly working together some day. In 2001 Jim’s first CD entitled James Becker appeared on the 44th Grammy Entry List in two categories Album of the Year and Counterparty Folk Album of the Year. He also appeared in several trade publications in the last year and current year 2002 which include Music Connection Magazine, and the Inside Connection Magazine and Totally Adult Magazine. The songs “Fair Warning” and Grace State of Mind and wishing you were here appeared on Totally Adult CD Radio Samplers this 2002 and 2003. For fall 2004 James Becker has completed work on new CD project entitled The Prize will be out later this year.
