Jack Yarber is better known as Jack Oblivian from the legendary Oblivians and Compulsive Gamblers. Since he moved in the late 80's to Memphis, Tennessee, Jack Oblivian has never stopped recording, writing and collaborating with other local heroes. His contribution to the rock&roll scene is so huge that we couldn't list it. Between two Oblivians' reunions, he relased a few solo albums and others with the Tearjerkers. By the way, the Jack Oblivian's songwriting is raw, heartbroken and simply beautiful as a few. On this 2010 tour he played with two other Memphis great dudes - Harlan T. Bobo and John Paul Keith - as a a happy family. "No ego"!
