Jackie Street, 1959–2008

Jackie was a truly great bass player who excelled at funk, rock, R&B and Gospel grooves, but most importantly, he was an extraordinary human being. The supportive, nurturing, and unifying qualities that make for great bass playing were also totally evident in the way he treated people and lived his life, and since his passing, many stories of his generosity and selflessness have come to light. When Jackie played in the All-Bass Orchestra, he naturally became the BASS player in that band, and we all leaned on his huge groove. He would always greet you with a shy smile, a warm hug, and a funny remark, and made everyone around him feel comfortable, relaxed, and in tune with the Universe. He will be missed.
