"The Jackies are Bob Catalde, lead vocals rhythm guitar. Mike Colavolpe, lead guitar backing vocals. Sandy Barker, bass guitar backing vocals. Brooks Barnett, keyboards backing vocals. Joe Scialla, drums. Howdy ya all, Bob speakin\' here. These are the guys I was lucky enough to put together as The Jackies. While Brooks appears on the track \'The Broadway Twister\',and the \'Bumblebee Scene\' adding a great feel the other tracks were recorded prior to putting the band together. The Jackies as they are now, are all on the last four tracks of the upcoming CD. Other musicians on the CD include the fabulous Solin of New Haven, who\'s new CD \'Energy Fair\' has just come out. The Jackies CD \'Lefty and the Broadway Twister\' will be out soon, and available on CD Baby. So in the meantime you can give the sample tracks a listen, and if you dig it, come and see us at one of the shows listed. All songs written and produced by Bob Catalde. Engineered by Solin and Bob Catalde. Recorded at Solin Music / Orange, CT Copyright 2008."
