Alan Jackson
Alan Jackson is originally from Newnan,
Georgia. He previously worked in The Nashville Network's mailroom.
Jackson's wife Denise got him connected to Glen Campbell, who helped him
jumpstart his career.
His first album, 1990's Here in the Real World, was a major hit, as was
his second (1991) album, Don't Rock the Jukebox. His 1992 release, A Lot
About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) was a smash success, spawning
five major singles with "Chattahoochee" being the most enduring and
successful. After a few more hit albums, Jackson again rocketed to fame
with "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)," a song about the
September 11, 2001 attacks, which became a hit single and briefly
propelled him into the mainstream spotlight; the song was even the
subject of parody on the popular animated series South Park, in the
episode "A Ladder To Heaven".
Although Jackson has been characterized as a "hat act", his influences
go deep into the roots of country music and his songs have been recorded
by some of the greats like Charley Pride, who recorded "Here In The Real
World". He has sung with George Jones on the award-winning "I Don't Need
Your Rockin' Chair" and "A Good Year for the Roses." His sense of humor
comes through in "Gone Country" with the satirical description of the
wannabes who cynically jumped on the country music bandwagon in the
1990s: "Everybody's gone country/Yeah we've gone country/The whole
world's gone country." He has been credited for popularizing a
Neotraditional Country sound. Alan's band is named the Stray Horns.
