About Joe Jackson
Joe Jackson emerged in English new wave with Look Sharp! and I'm the Man, including the single Is She Really Going Out with Him? His musical interests soon expanded beyond that early guitar-based sound. Jumpin' Jive explored blues and swing, while Night and Day included the jazz-influenced Steppin' Out. Later work ranged from the orchestral Symphony No. 1 to the piano-centered songs of Fool, reflecting a continuing movement between songwriting and other musical forms.
