Bio / info
Michael Gregory Jackson (born August 28, 1953 in New Haven, Connecticut) is an American jazz and R&B guitarist. Early in his career, he used the name Michael Gregory to prevent mix-ups with pop singer Michael Jackson. In 2013, he returned to using his full name. He is closely associated with saxophonist Oliver Lake, appearing on numerous albums in the 70s and 80s. More recently, he has worked with Wadada Leo Smith. In addition to his work in free jazz, he has also played with pop and R&B artists.
