The Rev. Jimmie Bratcher - How Far is Far Enough?


As I’ve stated before, one of the perks of hosting a radio show, is the ability to help a musical friend launch a new project into the ether. I met the Reverend Jimmie Bratcher and his amazing wife Sherrie years ago at Knuckleheads Saloon in Kansas City. I’ve been privileged to witness the hard work and devotion he pours into his music and his ministry. His work with the prison and the unhoused populations in this country is remarkable.

Like many young men of the Boomer generation, Jimmie’s first guitar hero was Eric Clapton. Early on, he played in bands that never quite took off “due to lack of professionalism and substance abuse.” Eventually, he steadied the ship and with the recent release of his 13th album, “Far Enough,” the Reverend has assembled a stellar crew of players, technicians and vocal accompaniment that are respected and revered industry wide. You HAVE to hear the stories behind the songs and the names of those involved in the production of the book and recordings of Far Enough… it reads like a who’s who in American popular music. It may be of interest to other creatives to hear how the Reverend has conducted his own research and formulated a strategy to tackle the business of music as well.

Did he go Far Enough? Time will tell. Enjoy this conversation with my friend, the Reverend Jimmie Bratcher.
