Description

Jack Jackson of Columbus, Ohio, emerged as one of modern square dancing's nationally traveled callers during the early 1960s. He toured throughout the United States and Canada, appearing at dances, festivals, camps and institutes. He was also an accomplished singer and guitarist whose unusually musical calling style set him apart. Jack recorded for Sets In Order Records and Folkraft Records released The Singing Side of Jack Jackson, showcasing the folk singing and after-party entertainment that made him popular beyond the dance floor. Jack Jackson later moved to Florida and eventually retired from calling.  This dance was recorded live in New England in 1959. Keep this podcast going by making a contribution using the button below.
