Jackie had a stroke before this album was released , is now living in Vegas and no longer performing. I was honored when he played my wedding 12 years ago along with Steve Edmundson - here is an early Video of Jackie very cool- "Gogo Train" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr497kU_-Zc
Is it ok to post a link here?
His early hit "Go Go Train" was issued on Jet Stream records under the name "Jackie Paine". Trivia: Jackie's trumpet player during the Steve Edmundson period was Lech Wierzynkski, and according to Lech after Jackie quit playing he decided to do a similar repertoire/band and formed the "California Honeydrops" who are now about to tour with Bonnie Raitt. Lechlearned guitar to put down the trumpet and sing as a front man, and he aint too shabby. This young band is bringing a whole new generation soul tunes like Nickel and a nail etc, but have paid chitlin club dues!
