Jackson was the fiddle player with Chris Acker when we hit this street corner to record his video. Turns out Jackson is a great writer/singer/songer in his own right, and we flipped the script to film this one of his right after Acker's.
I love Jackson's sound, listen to the recorded version here:
• Jackson and the Janks ...
And check them out on Facebook; Jackson and the Janks.
We spent a weekend in the 9th ward of New Orleans meeting a whole cast of weirdos, musicians, songwriters and all around characters. Filmed entirely on miniDV film using a Sony Handycam from the late 90s. "the New Orleans tapes, live in the 9th ward."

He is an acquaintance of my girlfriend here in Brooklyn. The first time she heard it was when another local roots band covered it and after the set she asked them who wrote it. Turns out it was this guy (I suck at names). She learned it and covers it whenever she gets the chance. I asked her the same question when I heard her leaning it. To me it's basically a soul song and more amazingly one of those songs that after you hear it for the first time, you swear you've heard it before. Hope it's a hit, definitely classic. I would love to hear Lucinda Williams sing this..... Edit: So his name is evidently Jackson and I'm an idiot..

Frady's Market, not really 9th Ward, more like the Bywater neighborhood. Lot of musicians and "sweet freaks" hanging out in front of there.

let me clarify. we happened to be at fradys. the series "live in the 9th ward" and my description of being in the 9th ward refer to the place i slept that week, and where the majority of the musicians lived. fradys is in the bywater. thank you!
