Jackie Shane - Don't Play That Song (Live at the Sapphire)

[TheMacgrurry]

There is nothing on this singer in Wikipedia. is he still around? Google is also likewise uninformitive

[GerryLincoln]

@TheMacgrurry You'll probably get as much info on Jackie by reading the comments here at YouTube as anywhere. Just check all the songs posted. If you have a specific question, email me and I'll try to help you out.

@GerryLincoln I missed your airing of the show.  Where can we view a repeat?

[GerryLincoln]

@rasputin63 It wasn't a video presentation. It was aired on CBC FM radio and I think on Sirius Satellite (Canada). You might check their websites in the archives. If you can't find it you can email me and I'll hook you up with an mp3 of the show.

I keep going back to this great cover of Ben.E.King's classic. Jackie was a soul singer that could stir the emotion right out of you. And that ladies and gentleman is why they call it "SOUL" music. Arthur Thomas

[maydom04]

Great version. Is this from the Caravan 45, or unreleased tape?

[GerryLincoln]

This is from the "Live at the Sapphire" album.

I really wish Jackie would have gone into a studio and recorded this song as a single. I always thought it had the potential to be another hit.
