James' work included:
Anyone familiar with his work can testify that he had a rare, distinctive talent and style. Local bands cover his songs, friends trade CDRs of his music, and his video work with the group Brown Cuts Neighbors has been excerpted and remixed by a number of video artists in the Capital Region. He was a quiet, unassuming presence in the Arts community who affected a great number of people with the intense sincerity and passion he put into his creative work.
