It
is only correct that we should feature the guy who was the all time attraction
at The 20 Grand.
The
plaudit goes to Northern Soul Hero Chuck Jackson.
Chuck had been lured from Wand in New York City to Motown in 1967.
It
didn't take him long to get involved at The 20 Grand where he was later
hailed as the greatest performer to grace the stage of The Driftwood Lounge.
He
performed twice nightly and openly expressed his liking for the club which
he claimed was clean and classy. The fact that he out-grossed every act
that ever appeared there, speaks volumes for his talents.
