Biographie Alan Jackson BIOGRAPHIE ARTICLE par ROLAND ROTH ICCGE (Interclubs Country du Grand Est) http://www.interclubs-country-grand-est.com/ ALAN JACKSON SA VIE / SA CARRIÈRE ALAN EUGENE JACKSON est né le 17 octobre 1958 à Newnan en Georgie. Il est le fils d’Eugene « Gene » Jackson qui était mécanicien auto et Ruth Musick. Il commença à chanter le Gospel dans une église et à la maison en famille. Alan a travaillé comme mécanicien auto, mais aussi comme vendeur de voitures d’occasion et conducteur de chariots élévateurs, charpentier et travailleur dans le bâtiment, pendant qu’il composait des chansons et jouait dans un groupe en Georgie. Lui et Denise déménagèrent en 1985 pour Nashville dans un petit appartement. La même année Denise rencontra Glen Campbell la country/pop star à l’aéroport où elle travaillait. Elle a mis Alan en relation avec lui, ce qui lui permit d’obtenir un poste d’auteur/compositeur dans la compagnie de musique de Campbell, dès 1986. Sa carrière débuta en réalité en 1989 après son départ du groupe « The Stayhorns » en signant avec Arista division New Country. En 1990, il sort l’album « Here In The Real World » qui sera platinium avec 5 hits au Top 5. En 1991, il a trois hits en N°1 : « I’d Love You All Over Again », « Don’t Rock The Jukebox » et « Someday ». En 1992 il sortira sa vidéo « Midnight in Montgomery » avec laquelle il gagna un CMA Award Cette même année, il sera N°1 avec deux titres : « Love’s Got a Hold on You » et « She’s Got The Rythm (and I Got The Blues) » En 1993, il sera pendant quatre semaines au top avec « Chattahoochee » qui rapporta des CMA Awards, comme étant le meilleur single de l’année 1993 et la meilleure chanson de l’année 1994. Il sortira aussi l’album de Noël « Honky Tonk Christmas » en 1993. Son album « A Lot About Livin’ » s’est vendu à 6 millions d’exemplaires. En 1994, l’album « Who I Am » sera un succès. En 1995, il sortira « The Greatest Hits Collection » Il poursuit sa carrière avec des nouveaux hits comme « Tall, Tall Trees » de Roger Miller et « Little Bitty » de Tom T. Hall. Puis ce sera la reprise en version Country du Rock de 1958 « Summertime Blues » d’Eddie Cochran et « Who’s Cheatin’Who », un remake du hit de Charly McClain. Dans son album « Under The Influence » de 1999, il nous offre sa version de chansons de Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty, Gene Watson, Charley Pride, Don Williams, Mel McDaniel et bien d’autres. Sa chanson « Pop a Top » n’est autre qu’une reprise d’un grand succès de Jim Ed Brown de 1967 En 2000, l’album « When Somebody Loves You » sera dans le Top. Alan écrira ou co-écrira des chansons comme « Forever Together » et « Better Class of Losers » pour Randy Travis, ‘If I Could Make a Livin’ » pour Clay Walker, et « I Can’t Do That Anymore » pour Faith hill. En 2001, après l’attentat du 11 septembre à New York, il chantera au CMA Awards Show son fameux « Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)», chanson qu’il reprendra au Pentagone le 9 septembre 2002 et gagna son premier Grammy Award comme meilleure chanson country. Cette même année, cette chanson aura un CMA Award comme chanson et single de l’année, et son album « Drive » aura l’Award du meilleur divertissement de l’année et du meilleur chanteur de l’année. Il vendra 4 millions d’albums de « Drive »(dédié à son père Gene) Jackson est un des favoris de l’industrie du disque de Nashville car il enchaîne plein de hits , tels que « Gone Country », « Murder On Music Row » avec George Strait et bien d’autres. Tous ses concerts se font à guichet fermé, comme celui à New York en 2002. En 2003, il sort un récapitulatif de sa carrière sous forme de 2 CD’s « Greatest Hits Volume II And Some Other Stuff » et l’album simple de même nom « Greatest Hits Volume II » Le premier single de cet album « It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere » en duo avec Jimmy Buffet sera N°1 aura 3 nouveaux Awards en 2003. En 2004 sortira son album « What I Do » avec comme hit « Remember When » Alan sera en tournée avec Martina McBride. Début 2006, l’album qu’il sortira sera du pur Gospel avec « Precious Memories », cadeau de Noël qu’il offrira à sa mère et à sa belle-mère. Cette même année, l’album « Like Red On a Rose » produit par Alison Krauss sera en vente. En 2007, il fera un album avec George Strait et Jimmy Buffet « Live at Texas Stadium » Son album produit par son vieil ami de ses débuts, compositeur et producteur Keith Stegall « Good Time » est sorti le 4 mars 2008. Une pure merveille. Il débuta sa tournée 2008, le 2 février au Livestock and rodeo de San Antonio ,Texas.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
