About Chuck Jackson
Artist Biography
Singer Chuck Jackson was a major soul star in the 1960s, placing 15 singles in the R&B Top 40 over the course of the decade. His two biggest hits, 1961's "I Don't Want to Cry" and 1962's "Any Day Now," were among the best and most indelible examples of smooth pop-soul of their day. He was also one of the first artists to take Bert Bacharach's songs to a significant audience, and he was one of the great tunesmith's most savvy interpreters. In 1967, Jackson left Wand Records for Motown, a move that unexpectedly stalled his career, but he remained popular as a live attraction, and latter-day LPs like I'll Take Care of You (with Cissy Houston) and 1998's I'll Never Get Over You demonstrated he never lost his way with a great song.
