    The Fried Chicken Theory According To Jackie Gordon (The Cotton Lounge, South Yarra) July 1999
    Reviewer: Fiona Scott-Norman

    The simple things in life are often the best, and Jackie Gordon’s fried chicken theory is exceedingly simple. This American born, half-Jamaican, open-hearted singer/chef says that if you eat soul food, the soul goes through you. Such a connection would be difficult to prove to the satisfaction of the AMA, but it feels right when you’re listening to some sweet blues and soul after a bowl of smoked sausage and seafood gumbo.

    The idea of combining food and music is scarcely original, but Gordon’s Fried Chicken Theory moves way beyond the thematic.
