Jim Reeves Drops a Game-Changer
In 1960, Jim Reeves released “He’ll Have to Go,” a track that reshaped both country and pop music. With his velvet voice and polished style, Reeves bridged two worlds, becoming a legend overnight.
The Story Behind the Song
Known as Gentleman Jim, Reeves balanced sophistication with country’s raw emotion. Born in Texas, he worked as a radio announcer before stepping fully into music. By the time this hit dropped, he was already a star — but this song launched him into a new league.
The song, written by Joe and Audrey Allison, sprang from a real-life moment. Joe overheard a man in a bar pleading with his lover over the phone: “Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone.” That line captured pure longing and vulnerability.
When Reeves recorded the track, he didn’t just sing — he lived it. Producer Chet Atkins kept the backing minimal, letting Jim’s voice take center stage. The result? An intimate, emotional song that pulled listeners in.
