On Ascension Day it will be exactly 25 years ago that the Roosendaal singer Jack Jersey passed away. Java-born Jack de Nijs scored in the 1970s and 1980s with mega hits such as ‘Papa Was A Poor Man’, ‘In The Still Of The Night’ and ‘Sri Lanka My Shangri-La’. The Brabant Top 100 proves that he has not been forgotten. In the video you can see a conversation with Johan Heeren, the bosom friend and accompanist of the singer.
