On March 4, 1975, Jim Sullivan struck out from Los Angeles on a final desperate bid to salvage his music career. His plan was to go to Nashville, Tennessee, and get a gig writing country music.
He left his wife and young son behind with plans to send for them once he got established. He drove through the night until being stopped by a highway patrolman the next day and warned for reckless driving.
He stopped off in Santa Rosa, New Mexico, and got a hotel room, then went to the local store and bought a bottle of vodka. Evidence suggests he never slept in the room at all, but no one is sure where he went or what he did.
Sullivan was next seen the following day about 26 miles outside of town, walking from his car into the desert. That was the last anyone ever saw of him.
Search crews were brought in. They found he'd left his guitar, money, and other personal effects in his car. They lost his trail shortly into the desert.
