Rudy Jackson Life story
Rudy Jackson was Duke Ellington's clarinetist before being replaced by Barney Bigard. Jackson began playing clarinet seriously in high school while living in Chicago (both of his parents were musicians) and was gigging by 1918. He gained experience playing with Carroll Dickerson's Orchestra and King Oliver (1923-1924).
