Jack White (producer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jack White (b. 2 September 1940 in Cologne, Germany) is a music composer and producer by the real name of Horst Nussbaum. After producing German Schlager music in the 70s, he went international when he produced Laura Branigan's hits "Gloria" and "Self Control" as well as Pia Zadora songs such as "When the Rain Begins to Fall", all in Eurodisco style. In 1989 he entered a musical partnership with David Hasselhoff, whose White-produced albums "Looking For Freedom" (1989) and "Crazy For You" (1991) made the actor/singer a major mainstream success in central Europe. More recently, White's production company has helped popularize Reggaeton music (Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina"). White also worked with singers such as Barry Manilow and Paul Anka ("Put Your Head on My Shoulder").
