Blackjack *

Donald Clark a.k.a. Blackjack was born on January 11, 1965. Some say that as he was pulled from the womb the doctors had some difficulty with the birthing procedure. There was something in his right hand and he would not let go...it was...a guitar!! As this young child lay in his crib at night with a subtle black light on and the light scent of sandalwood incense, the sounds of Eddie Hazel could be heard in the background...or maybe it was Santana...or was it...Ernie Isley? The young Blackjack would then calmly flip the switch on his Marshall amp and began to play.

First he played the blues, then came the funk, then a lite jazz...reminiscent of Paul Jackson Jr., the god of shimmer & sparkle. Then from nowhere came a sizzling solo the likes of which had never been heard before. Thunder and Lightening began dance in the sky and the wind began to swirl...then as quickly as it started, the torrent became a calm breeze as Blackjack strummed the passionate Latin sounds of his acoustic guitar.

The people were amazed and the gods were pleased as the child was only
a lad of two. By the time Blackjack reached adulthood, he sought other
musicians to unite with to create the best music possible whatever the genre.

The legend continues...*
