PERHAPS I’M SENTIMENTAL – the book
This is a compilation of all things Jim Haynes. Verse, opinions, history, humour and observations –over 60 of the verses Jim wrote or recited to go with topics he discussed on 2GB (and 2UE) in Sydney and on 6PR in Perth over the last quarter of a century. Lots of photographs, along with some Sydney history, childhood memories, humour and home-spun philosophy. This book will bring back memories of travelling on steam trains, outdoor dunnies, choko vines and schooldays – plus Jim’s history as a songwriter and performer.

“SMILE”
This is a very special ‘personal’ CD, made for Jim to celebrate his 70th Birthday. Here are all the songs he loves to sing – but never included in his stage shows. The arrangements and orchestration was done by Greg Hooper and all the strings – violin, viola, mandolin, guitar etc by Marcus Holden (even a saw played with a violin bow!). Jim’s vocals were recorded by Marcus at his ‘Bloody Dog’ studio and Melanie Dyer provided the backing vocals.
This album is a nostalgia trip -songs by Jim’s favourite songwriters, Rodgers and Hart, Yip Harburg, Cole Porter, Gordon Lightfoot, Charlie Chaplin and more.
Jim would love to share his favourite songs with you.
