1979 - Jacksoul

Released on behalf of the Neale family:

At 39 years of age Juno Award-winning artist Haydain Neale of jacksoul passed away Sunday, November 22, 2009 at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, after a very private seven month battle with lung cancer.

On a beautiful, sunny morning with his wife Michaela, daughter Yasmin, brother-in-law Shawn Hudson and friends Davide DiRenzo and Jennifer Hyland by his side, Haydain passed away peacefully.

Throughout his rehabilitation after a car accident in August 2007 and during his illness, Haydain always maintained a positive spirit.

In a statement from his wife Michaela; Through all these challenges, Haydains sense of humour and love of music were ever-present. He constantly brightened the room with his singing and his smile. His joyful presence and beautiful voice will be missed by us all.

An interment with a private family gathering will take place later this week.

The family appreciates your messages of condolence but requests that you respect their privacy during this difficult time.

Of course I am feeling the loss of my son's presence. I feel what all his fans feel. Haydain left so many treasures for us to remember. My hope is that many musician were produced from his sessions in Concerts and his Workshops and School presentations. missus October 2010. Thanksgiving in Canada is next Sunday his first favorite then comes Christmas Feasts. A great Chef too. at 16 he was on staff at a restaurant.

@hfa555 no this song was created by the smashing pumpkins

[hfa555]

Did Smashing Pumpkins steal this riff?

[nicholsjoshua15]

I like how he keeps the original feel and ads his own touch to the way he sings it and the way the music is played. Nice work god bless you and you and all of the greats are singing for the heavenly host. This is just as good as the original, I like both the Smashing Pumpkins 1979 original and the Jacksoul 1979 cover. When I sing this song I say "Shake down 1999, cool kids never have the time."
