Jim was born and raised in East Chicago Indiana Harbor. The doo-wop sound was everywhere! Jim had an ear for it. Without reading a note, He could harmonize with anyone. He soon realized that he had a true gift. Jim was in his first group from 1956 to 1960. In 1959 he named his high school group "The Bonnevilles". His favorite DJ's on the radio were Al Benson, Herb Kent, Lucky Cordell, and Vivian Carter. He was inspired by The Spaniels, The El Dorados, The Teenagers, The Flamingos, The Drifter, (especially Elsbeary Hobbs of The Drifters), Little Anthony and the Imperials, The Harptones, The Moroccos, The Dominos, The Clovers, The Skyliners and The Moonglows. Over the years Jim has been involved with many vocal groups. He has shared the doo wop stage with hundreds of well known acts from the fifties and sixties. Many of them were the groups that he idolized as a kid singing on the corner. In his doo-wop career Jim performed at The Whitehouse and The Voice of America in our nation's Capital. He appeared on The Tom Snider and Oprah Winfrey television shows and sang and acted in a pilot with Tom Dreesen, Victoria Jackson, Mike Haggerty, Johnny Bench and Frank Sinatra. It was called "Dreesen Street". In 2004, Jim had the honor of performing for our troops in Bosnia, Kosovo and Sarajavo. That was his biggest thrill. They loved it. "After 51 years of singing doo-wop music, my favorite group is Harbor Lights. We look sharp and sound great! All age groups love our performances." Jim commented. "All of this I owe to my wife Sharon who has backed me all the way. My dear friend Elsbeary Hobbs from The Drifters always said to me... "Let's doo-wop forever". So, forever I will." Jimmy C
