#Interestingly NOT the MTV VJ… This J.J. Jackson is the soul singer/songwriter & arranger who came up through New York studios… #JJJackson #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly Like we’ve seen many times before, sometimes it’s up to radio to decide what is a hit… On the Calla Records single 119, “But It’s Alright” was the B-side to “Boogaloo Baby.” Radio pivoted, and “But It’s Alright” did what great flipsides do: stole the show. #JJJackson #OneHitWondered

Hard to believe it’s been 6 years. Thank you all for your support. It’s long past time that #MarkGoodman #MarthaQuinn #AlanHunter #NinaBlackwood & #JJJackson are rightfully inducted into the @rockhall for their contributions to Rock & Roll!

#Interestingly When Warner Brothers acquired the Calla Records catalog, they reissued JJ Jackson’s “But It’s Alright” in 1969, and it re-entered the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #45… it didn’t do as well as the first release, but it was a decent second life. #JJJackson #OneHitWondered

On this day in 2004, original MTV VJ J.J. Jackson died of a heart attack at the age of 62. I liked all of the VJs, but there was something about JJ that I really, really liked. Maybe it was the voice, maybe it was the swaggah, but he was just extra cool in eye. #jjjackson #MTV #mtvvj

Happy Birthday J. J. Jackson. (RIP) #HappyBirthdayJJJackson #JJJackson #Birthday #Legend #Legends #MTV
