Indian Summer/Ross
Jackson formed his first professional rock group in 1969, called Indian Summer. The group released the album Indian Summer in 1971, and then disbanded the following year. Jackson joined John Entwistle's new band "Rigor Mortis" in 1972 and played on their debut tour. Jackson and bandmate Alan Ross decided to put together their own group in 1973, calling themselves "Ross". They released two albums on RSO Records; Ross in 1973, and The Pit and the Pendulum in 1974. This hard rock group failed to capture an audience and disbanded after the release of its second album.

Famous quotes containing the words indian, summer and/or ross:
“We crossed a deep and wide bay which makes eastward north of Kineo, leaving an island on our left, and keeping to the eastern side of the lake. This way or that led to some Tomhegan or Socatarian stream, up which the Indian had hunted, and whither I longed to go. The last name, however, had a bogus sound, too much like sectarian for me, as if a missionary had tampered with it; but I knew that the Indians were very liberal. I think I should have inclined to the Tomhegan first.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The seasons alter; hoary-headed frosts
Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose,
And on old Hiems’ thin and icy crown
An odorous chaplet of sweet summer buds
Is, as in mockery, set.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“If we did not have such a thing as an airplane today, we would probably create something the size of N.A.S.A. to make one.”
—H. Ross Perot (b. 1930)
