I had heard that J.J. Jackson was living in England. Does anyone know his whereabouts? I have always been a big fan of his and wanted to contact him about doing some shows in America.

Thanks

He was plying his trade in the UK prior to recording " BIA " in the UK 1966 . The single featured several of Britain's top jazz musicians of the day , including Terry Smith on guitar , Dick Morrissey on tenor sax , and John Marshall on drums , who later toured with him as his backing band .

got any money for "But it's alright" - boy haven't we heard that before ?
