Banjoiste, guitariste et chanteur Bluegrass US né le 18 Septembre 1953 à Louisville (Mississippi).
Carl
Jackson, an accomplished bluegrass instrumentalist and songwriter, was born
September 18, 1953, in Louisville, MS. While playing in his father's bluegrass
band at the age of 14, he was approached by
Jim & Jesse to join their backing group, the Virginia Boys. He accepted and
spent most of his teenage years playing banjo for
Jim & Jesse and other groups at the
Grand Ole Opry. Jackson's talents earned him a contract with the independent
Prize label, where he recorded the album Bluegrass Festival in the late
'60s.
In 1971, Jackson left to play with the Sullivan Family, but after less than a
year, he moved to Ohio to form the Country Store with
Keith Whitley and Jimmy Gaudreau. A
short time later, he jumped at the chance to join
Glen Campbell's backing band. He spent
12 years with Campbell, but during that
time he also recorded the albums Banjo Player and Old Friend for Capitol.
In 1981, Jackson signed with Sugar Hill and released his tribute to
Earl Scruggs, Banjo Man. The
following year brought Songs of the South, and in 1983 he joined with old
friends Jim & Jesse for Banjo Hits.
After signing with Columbia in 1984, Carl Jackson left
Glen Campbell and began to hit the
charts. His Lefty Frizzell cover "She's
Gone, Gone, Gone" reached number 44 in 1984, though three later singles never
matched its relative success. (Jackson did write the hit "(Love Always) Letter
to Home," which peaked in the Top 15 for
Campbell in May 1984.) During the late '80s, his rich harmony Vocals
brightened recordings by Emmylou Harris,
Ricky Skaggs,
Vince Gill,
Garth Brooks,
Roger Miller, and many other acts. In
the '90s, Carl Jackson began to be rewarded for his years of work. He earned the
International Bluegrass Association's Song of the Year award in 1990 for "Little
Mountain Church Home," recorded by Ricky
Skaggs and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
on Will the Circle Be Unbroken, Vol. 2, and won a Best Bluegrass Album
Grammy the following year with John
Starling & the Nash Ramblers for Spring Training.
