High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Tom Stacks (November 9, 1899 – February 19, 1936) was the lead singer, drummer, and sound effects man for many of Harry Reser`s late 1920s jazz and novelty bands that included "The Six Jumping Jacks" and "Harry Reser`s Rounders" (Reser would use many of the same musicians and simply change the names of the bands so that he could work for several companies at once). Stacks` unusual voice has been described as having a "built-in smile" and also as being "what a man would sound like if his voice box remained in adolescence while the rest of his body matured."
