His back-up singers, The Chantones included: Roy Lesperance-bass; Jim Nantais-baritone; Larry Desjarlais-tenor; and Jack Grenier-lead tenor. They were all Canadian guys based in Windsor.Michael McNamaranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226924615283203864.post-43326820668659102792011-05-21T07:01:28.192-04:002011-05-21T07:01:28.192-04:00He was only in the army for a year?

He has also gone to Europe with some Detroit guys from the HiQ's & Big Barn Combo backing him for several years now. Until fairly recently, he had the great Ann Arbor blues singer/guitarist Steve Nardella playing lead. Steve finally got fed up with Jack, who is notoriously difficult. I just had a conversation about Jack with some of these guys a few weeks ago that was pretty interesting. The standard bio on Jack basically cites his "stage fright" as a reason his career often got derailed. The truth is, Jack has a huge ego and made things tougher on himself at every opportunity. He pissed Dick Clark off so badly that Dick basically blackballed him at a key point in his career. Jack is still good though, he even turns up for small rockabilly acts that pass through metro Detroit. He likes to blow through the door without paying even the five buck cover, an experience I've had a few times while working the door for shows I've done! He'll often jump up and play a few tunes though, it's always good.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401721409041318887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226924615283203864.post-39812056152380757932011-05-16T10:41:55.159-04:002011-05-16T10:41:55.159-04:00I've got some of his 45s from my dad.
