Here is a song by singer songwriter Jim Minor. This song, JACKSON PRISON BARS, written by Jim, was about a man who left the south because he didn't have a dime, so he takes the hillbilly highway north to build them shiny cars. The man ends up in Jackson state prison, Michigan. Great classic country ballad song. Record was released by Sound of Nashville record label and has an orange label with flip side "Aggravatin Waitin Baby"

  • Good video, Todd!!!!

  • how cool is this? at the very end they show a postcard of the actual blocks.

  • Great song and what a voice! I give historic guided tours at Michigan's First State Prison (Jackson's first). I am looking for any songs about the Jackson Prison and would love to hold a concert of singers singing prison songs -- folksongs, country, rock, old and new. Let me know of any out there, please. As for apartments -- this old prison is now Armory Arts Village, a resident community with a focus on artists and the arts, though it is the history and tours that are the biggest attraction.
