Description
THE LOS ANGELES-BASED “THE JACKS” WERE SO GOOD AT COVERING POPULAR HITS OF THE DAY THAT THEIR VERSIONS WERE OFTEN EQUAL TO (IF NOT BETTER THAN) THE ORIGINAL VERSIONS. THEY WERE VERSATILE IN R&B, JUMP TUNES, BALLADS, CALYPSO SONGS, AND RECORDED SOME OF THE GREATEST EARLY ROCK & ROLL SONGS EVER, INCLUDING “STRANDED IN THE JUNGLE” (RELEASED IN 1956, AND CHARTING AT NUMBER FOUR R&B/NUMBER 15 POP). MOSTLY, THOUGH, “THE JACKS” ARE REMEMBERED FOR RECORDING UNDER TWO NAMES SIMULTANEOUSLY : AS “THE JACKS” (FOR MODERN) AND “THE CADETS” (FOR RPM) , EACH GROUP HAD ITS OWN HITS AND EACH WITH A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT SOUND AND MUSICAL DIRECTION –––– ORIGINAL 1960 RELEASE ON THE “CROWN” BLACK DEEP GROOVE LABEL, SOLID VINYL RECORD AND COVER WITH PRICE TAG.
