Members of The Ozark Mountain Daredevils certainly weren’t blue after their single “Jackie Blue” hit #1 on the music industry’s cha-ching chart. The song stayed at that spot for two weeks. 

“Jackie Blue” was the second chart topper for the Missouri musicians, following  “If You Wanna Get To  Heaven.”
