JACK RUSSELL
December 5, 1960 – August 15, 2024
It gives me great sadness to know that Jack Russell passed away on August 15, 2024. On January 26, 2017, I had the chance to speak with Jack about all kinds of things, including the latest release from Jack Russell’s Great White, He Saw It Comin’.
In this interview, Jack would open up about his relationship with Great White, his vocal warm-up, his health, and his demons. He talks about preparing an autobiography, and what was on his bucket list.
It was a great honor to speak with Jack. My sincere condolences go out to his family, his friends, and all of the fans who loved him so very much.
Rest in peace, my friend.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
