| The Cadillac Jack Revue was formed by Jack Becker in 1994 yet the concept for CJR began un-officially in 1954 when bands led by Ike Turner, Muddy Waters and B.B. King played house rockin’ rhythm and blues. There was a raw edge to the music...and it made the audience feel real good. Jack has shared the stage with some of Americas hottest players: Coco Montoya, Preston Smith, Marcie Levy (Eric Clapton), Larry Taylor (Canned Heat), Janiva Magness, and Henry Cooper (Screamin’ Jay Hawkins) to name a few. With over 1,000 gigs under his belt, Jack knows how to make an audience feel right at home.
1969
Spending more time than a white man should in south central L.A. and listening to way too much James Brown, Jack Becker acquired a taste for soul music and soul food. Having had the luck of seeing acts like Albert King, John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters at the local clubs, and combining that with a love for Merle Haggard, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis, the sound of the Cadillac Jack Revue was born.
With a lineup of top musicians this band plays every song straight from the heart. A hell-raising time is guaranteed with the Cadillac Jack Revue! |
