Hey guys...It took some digging, but after quite some time, I found the whereabouts of Jock Mitchell (who now performs under the name Little Jake Mitchell). He was kind enough to grant me a series of interviews and I've been recording his history at length. He toured at 13 years old with the likes of Sam Cooke, James Brown and Jackie Wilson. He played the Apollo five times and much more.
If you're interested in him, check out Part I of the audio interview. You can download it for free (https://spinningsoul.com/2010/06/littlejakemitchell) or search for it on iTunes under Soul School Audio.
