Canadian Terry Jacks was born in Winnipeg back in 1944. At eighteen he was very good on the guitar and had formed his own group called the Chessmen, who scored a few Canadian top ten hits in the mid 1960s. In 167 he joined The Poppy Family where he met fellow band member Susan Pesklevits, who would soon become Susan Jacks. The group had hits in the U.S. and Canada.
