Jack Scott’s second album of 1960, What In The World’s Come Over You, reverted to more pop orientated material. The title track and Burning Bridges were both US top five hit singles. (UK:11)

“Jack was extremely talented writing his own songs and having his own band. He had more of the bad boy look, instead of the well polished look of teen idols of that time.”

“Jack Scott deserves much praise for making countless people happy with his incredible singing; there really wasn't any type of song he couldn't do brilliantly. I recommend his music for both his current fans and people just discovering his talent.”

“Jack Scott never received the accolades and recognition he should have. The DJs of that era played far too little of him and too much of the Philadelphia pretty boys Fabian, Frankie Avalon and Bobby Rydell.”

“He has by far one of the most powerful voices of the time. His original releases and tribute songs are all top notch. Listen to one of the few voices you will find that are strong and tender all wrapped into one artist.”

“His deep baritone was unusual for rock artists of the time, and I always liked distinctive low voices.”

“This talented singer never got the recognition he so richly deserved. Just listen to his rendition of What In The World's Come Over You. Jack Scott put his heart and soul into his songs. The oldies stations have virtually ignored his music.”

“When I heard this music, it transported me back to the 50s and reminded me of what really good music sounded like. Then you could understand what they were saying and what they meant.”
