Joining local heroes the Del Vikings, his smooth, commanding voice took the lead on their 1957 single \"Willette.\" Going solo in 1959, Jackson was spotted by producer\/Wand Records A\u0026amp;R man Luther Dixon while opening for Jackie Wilson at the Apollo Theatre. With Dixon, Jackson co-wrote his first hit, \"I Don't Want to Cry.\" The track featured a lavish band arrangement, a style Dixon had perfected during his sessions with the Shirelles. Together, Jackson and Dixon carefully crafted I Don't Want to Cry! (1961), Jackson's debut LP. A concept album dedicated to songs about crying, it finds Jackson covering mentor Wilson (\"Lonely Teardrops\") as well as an early Burt Bacharach\/Hal David composition (\"I Wake Up Crying\"). Audibly in command, Jackson's vocals blend seamlessly with Dixon's arrangements, resulting in an astonishingly accomplished album. Working from the original analog reels, Sundazed has mastered this landmark LP in the rare true stereo mix. Pressed at R.T.I. on lush vinyl, every string swell, every horn phrase and, most importantly, every vocal performance comes through in \"you are there\" clarity. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACK LISTING: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI DON'T WANT TO CRY \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTEARS ON MY PILLOW \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWILLOW TREE \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIN BETWEEN TEARS \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTEAR OF THE YEAR \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI CRIED FOR YOU \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLONELY TEARDROPS \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDON'T LET THE SUN CATCH YOU CRYING\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSALTY TEARS \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI WAKE UP CRYING \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA TEAR \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA MAN AIN'T SUPPOSED TO CRY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"LimitContentHeightCntntFrm\"\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"LPs New","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42642313117889,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/chuckjackson-idon_twanttocry.jpg?v=1685076843","url":"https:\/\/hathillrecords.com.au\/products\/chuck-jackson-i-dont-want-to-cry-vinyl-lp-5426","provider":"Hat Hill Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
