	Tony Jackson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jackson was born to a poor African American family in Uptown New Orleans, Louisiana on June 5, 1876.
		Jackson also wrote many original tunes, a number of which he sold rights to for a few dollars or were simply stolen from him; some of the old time New Orleans musicians said that some well known Tin Pan Alley pop tunes of the era were actually written by Jackson.
		Jackson was resident performer at the De Luxe and Pekin Cafes in Chicago, although in his later years his voice and dexterity were impaired by disease, probably syphilis.

		Jackson was a fulltime starter for the first time in his career as a senior in 2004, when he had seven receptions for 44 yards and one TD.
		Jackson lacks ideal height and his production while at Iowa was unimpressive, but we still think he is a bit of a "sleeper" in this year's TE class.
		Jackson is too much of an enigma to consider on Day 1 but he could become a real steal for a team that takes a chance on him early on the second day...

	The History of Tony Jackson
		Liverpudlian lore has it that Tony Jackson was also known as "Black Jake" which also suggests that his somewhat caustic personality may have played a role in his leaving the group.
		A watershed for Jackson and The Searchers surfaced with the recording of "Needles and Pins" which without a doubt had the once lead singer on "pins and needles" to be sure.
		In the end, Curtis may be said to have orchestrated Jackson's removal seemingly because of an interest including Frank Allen, the bass player for Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers, in the group.

		The calm, serious expression Tony wears just barely hides the bubbling energy and excitement beneath - his speech is liberally decorated with superlatives like "amazing," "incredible," "awesome", and "phenomenal." Nonetheless, he over- whelmingly communicates a sense of being grounded, the kind of personality you’d expect in a good bass player.
		Kanal has an ease with his emotions - from the thrill of taking his parents to India and playing a show their family and friends could see, to the disappointment on that same trip, when some Indians, still saddled with generations-long colonial mindset, treated his European-descent bandmates with a deference he was not afforded.
		We met Tony at his Los Angeles home, a nicely redone Mediterranean on a modest lot that speaks more of Tony’s contentment with his success than of stereotypical rock-star opulence.

	History Of The Electric Bass
		Trained as an upright bass player in the jazz tradition (Paul Chambers and Ray Brown were two of his biggest influences), James Jamerson began recording with Motown Records in 1959 as a means to help support his growing family.
		Carol was a “pick player” and had a unique approach to using the pick; the sounds she coaxed out of her bass were different than the sound many of her peers were getting, who were playing either with their thumb (in the style of Monk Montgomery) or finger-style.
		In fact, there was a belief among the Jazz elitists that the electric bass was "half the instrument" the upright was, in terms of the amount and degree of artistic expression that could be yielded from the instrument.
