We've lost one of the family!
« on: February 18, 2008, 10:58:45 AM »
I'm here to share the sad news of losing one of our greatest Christian bassists of our time,Mr. Jackie Street! Many of you may not know him but I can guarantee that you've HEARD him! Just do a google search on his name and watch the credits roll!

Although I never had the pleasure of meeting him,he was definitely a mentor in studio playing,always playing the right notes,TONE,pure TONE! One of my greatest feelings came when a producer once told me that I reminded them of Mr. Street...little did they know,I studied the guy!! :-) :-)

Please say a prayer for the family and the Nashville bass fraternity cause this is a huge loss to the music world!

Take care and be blessed!

Jackie Clark
