You knew him by sight instantly. He was an Ann Arbor insitution for decades and sadly, YCD must report Shakey Jake Woods has passed away Sunday evening at age 82.
Probably second only to Bo Schembechler in Ann Arbor name recognition around town and, unlike Schembechler, little is known about Jake's life other than nobody played a one or two string guitar any better.
Jake's "On the Move" to somewhere better YCD truly hopes.
His presence will be sorely missed around town.

It should be mentioned Jake was a snappy dresser.
And brought back hats into fashion for men around town.
