Jerry Butler (born Jerry Butler Jr., 8 December 1939, Sunflower, Mississippi) is an American soul singer and songwriter also known as «The Ice Man» because of his cool demeanour while singing often intensely emotional lyrics. He is also noted as being the original lead singer of the legendary R&B vocal group, The Impressions, as well as a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee.
The mid 1950s had a profound impact on Butler’s life. He grew up poor, having lived in Chicago’s rough Cabrini Green housing complex. Music and the church provided solace from a city that was as segregated as those in the Deep South. He performed in a church choir with Curtis Mayfield. As a teenager, Butler sang in a gospel quartet called Northern Jubilee Gospel Singers along with Mayfield. Mayfield, a guitar player, became the lone instrumentalist for the six-member Roosters group, which later became The Impressions. Inspired by music icons Sam Cooke and the Soul Stirrers, the Five Blind Boys of Mississippi and the Pilgrim Travelers, getting into the music industry seemed inevitable.[1]
Early recordings
At age 18, Butler wrote the song, «For Your Precious Love» and wanted to record a disc. Looking for recording studios, The Impressions auditioned for Chess Records and VeeJay Records.

Jerry Butler as an artist is the top man. As a politician he sucks and I hope the voters sit you out on your ass. Got to love the music though! No denying that.

You are now looking at the goofy old white guy in the cowboy hat. You can blame that on last.fm. when you go to the Ice mans page you get me, when you go to my page you get him, Can't help that I'm also Jerry Butler. I like to think I'm a little better than goofy tho'. I don't throw bad comments about Jerry Butler the Ice Man, in fact I think he's a great singer, he and I have been in the business about the same amount of years. Thank you Jerry Butler (Country Music Singer)

I laughed my ass off when I started listening to Jerry Butler's sweet soul music and a picture of a goofy old white guy in a cowboy hat came up. That's comedy. Thanks, Last.fm!
