David Ian “Joe” Jackson (born 11 August 1954) is an English musician and singer-songwriter.

He subsequently relocated from England to New York and then to Berlin. He recorded 19 studio albums and garnered 5 Grammy Award nominations in a career extending from 1979 to today. After years of studying music and playing clubs, Jackson’s first release, “Is She Really Going Out with Him?” became a hit in 1979. This was followed by a number of new wave singles before he moved to more jazz-inflected pop music and had a Top 10 hit in 1982 with “Steppin’ Out”. He has also composed classical music.

Night and Day is Joe Jackson’s fifth album, released in June 1982. It reached the Top 5 in both the UK and U.S., Jackson’s only studio album to do so. It sold over one million copies, earning platinum disc status.
