The Way I Walk: The Music of Jack Scott tells how the Canadian born son of an Italian immigrant rose to rockabilly fame, but got lost in the shuffle as the music continued to evolve. Scott scored hit after hit as deejays flipped his records over and turned both sides into hit songs. In 1958, all six sides of his three records scored in the top 100 with two of them being top ten and a third side hitting #11. Canada claims Scott as its "Greatest rock and roll singer of all time," although he had been a Detroit resident for ten years when his hits started coming in. Other artists with less recording credentials found their way into the R&R Hall of Fame, while Jack Scott continues to be ignored. You may not recognize his name, but you certainly know his songs: What In the World's Come Over You; Burning Bridges; The Way I Walk; Leroy; Go Wild Little Sadie; Geraldine; My True Love; and other gems. His music is still played on the radio and finds its way into the movies. Jack Scott... The Way I Walk.
