  *The Rise Of Steve Jordan*
Jordan was a musical child prodigy who never went to school and, to this day,                                         cannot read or write.Nearly blinded at birth in both eyes by a clumsy midwife,                                          he picked up the accordion for the first time at a migrant labor camp in Texas                                          when he was 7.Over a long, turbulent career drenched in booze and drugs,                                              he played everything he heard, and learned every instrument he got his hands on.                                    He was even good enough to play guitar with Willie Bobo's Latin jazz band in 1964.                                 "What Steve Jordan did was, he electrified the accordion," says Sunny Sauceda,                                    "He used pedals, he brought in jazz influences to the accordion playing. He brought                                  in the effects that had never been done on the accordion — to this day, nobody does it."                          Those effects — like phase shifters, fuzzboxes and echoplexes — gave rise to the label                           that Jordan hates to this day: "the Jimi Hendrix of the accordion."Then there's the whole                           jazz thing, says Joel Guzman, an acclaimed traditional accordionist from Austin, Texas.                          "He's playing flat-fifths and raised 11ths, rhythmically so deep," Guzman says.                                        "So, from a musical standpoint, he's a genius."
