Saw Jackson too, with the Decoding Society, and also once on the Street in my town, Westfield, at a Summer Jazz fest we used to have every Tuesday night (I was shocked to catch him there).

I once had Ronald Shannon Jackson live on my show, but only in conversation over the phone. (If I remember correctly, he was working on a project at the time with Mike Watt, who also came on the phone.) Jackson announced to the world via my show that he had discovered "The One Essential Rhythm." It was all very exciting.
