Day Four: Jackson C. Frank - Just Like Anything

If folk music is a genre that traditionally leans into and extracts value from personal hardship, then Jackson C. Frank may very well be a masterclass in the art of sorrow. While this user can't and won't try to establish every languishing detail of Jackson's tragic life, for doing so would be a disservice to a musician that ultimately deserves to be remembered for his unmatched lyricism and spectacular skill as a guitarist, this user will, at the very least, divulge in some details that are necessary to accessorize the summation of his worth to the musical world.

A furnace explosion in Jackson's childhood elementary school would be the catalyst for much of what would occur later in his life. The explosion set the stage as it resulted in the death of fifteen students, including his childhood sweetheart, Marlene Dupont. The explosion itself landed Jackson in the hospital with significant and lifelong injuries. It was during this time he was introduced to the guitar, and after some encouragement through his idol, Elvis Presley, and receiving a settlement check of roughly $900,000 in today's money around the age of 21 Jackson would attempt to break into music.

At the time of Woodstock and the exploding folk scene in England, Jackson would spend a fair bit of time overseas playing and building a repertoire with several influential acts - including one Paul Simon who would go on to produce Jackson's one and only LP. As with most album releases covered in this thread, it received little fanfare.

In his later years, Jackson would become close friends with misery and loss. He married in England, produced a son and daughter, only to lose both. One, to cystic fibrosis and the other to divorce. He was also a frequent inhabitant in behavioral wards and mental institutions, suffering from schizophrenia and various other illnesses. Jackson was also, unfortunately, frequently vagrant and homeless. He would die an ignoble death from pneumonia and cardiac arrest in 1999.

Jackson's life is one of heartbreak and misfortune, but it's not without its admirers. He would be frequently covered by his contemporaries, including Simon and Garfunkel, and Nick Drake. And while Jackson never saw any sort of legitimate legacy while he was alive, his skill at crafting beauty with his voice and guitar never went truly unnoticed. Here's to you, Jackson. I sincerely hope you have found peace in the afterlife.

I agree with that Skyrim sentiment. It may have been a vastly simplified game in comparison to KC:D, but it's a much more accessible, much more fun game to play. It's a real shame, because I had such high hopes for the game before it came out :/

Using the death of this young girl in some sort of publicity stunt, no matter how apparently noble, is gratuitous in the extreme. The parents should absolutely know better, but then again I somewhat doubt they're even the least bit pious.

Day Three: Sibylle Baier - The End

Sibylle Baier isn't exactly a renowned musician. In fact, in her life upon this earth she only has one LP that was ever released - and that was at the behest of J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. providing the Orange Twin record label the apparent gift he received of Sibylle's son that digitally compiled her privately recorded tunes in the early 70s in a vacation around Europe with her best friend and ripped them to CDs to give to family.

In 2006, those recordings were released for a wider audience through the aforementioned label. In those days of recording, Baier appeared in several German programs including the 1973 film 'Alice in the City,' and her music was featured in several other films. But that's where Baier's career effectively ended. She eventually moved to America, where she instead focused on raising a family.

Baier's style is minimal, featuring only her voice and a nylon-string guitar on most of the album. Her hushed vocals and ominous laden plucking belies a certain bittersweetness that lingers in her work, sounding reminiscent of what Nick Drake was putting out during his final days on the Earth.

I'm glad I could do him justice. The guy was certainly unique, and his stylings on "Blue Crystal Fire" always felt like you were staring into some crackling fire, or hearing the rumblings of some far off, but coming still locomotive. It was ominous, and beautiful.

Day Two: Robbie Basho - Blue Crystal Fire

Born an orphan and adopted by the Robinson family of Baltimore, Maryland, Basho (who took his last name from the Japanese poet Matsuo Basho) had an early interest in music but it wasn't until he became acquainted with the likes of John Fahey and picked up the acoustic guitar that he began to take serious the art he was quickly immersing himself in. Shortly after college, Basho took a deep interest in Asian art and culture.

Basho was eclipsed and overshadowed by his contemporaries while he was alive, but since the millennium there's been a renewed interest in his work and life. In 2015, a documentary detailing his life and career was produced and showcased at the Raindance Festival, and was nominated for several awards. Basho was a fairly prolific musician while alive, and he sought to establish the steel string as a staple of concert instruments along with creating a raga system for America. These days, Basho is considered one of the foremost authorities on the style of American primitive guitar.

Disclaimer: As always, this is purely for entertainment purposes. I do this because I like to share music with this forum, and I actively encourage discussion and discourse about the genres I put on display.

Welcome, once again, to another "7 Days of" topic brought to you by yours truly. After the monumental "Month of Metal," I took November off to rest my brain. That said, I'm back with another genre of music across the following seven days to highlight a number of artists I feel are worth viewing and discussing. December feels like an appropriate time of the year to cover the cold exterior, yet warm and cozy center of folk music. It's often bitter, it's often sweet, it's often bittersweet and I hope at least one person here comes away with an artist they, hopefully, seek more of in their own time. And with that, let us begin!
----------------------------------------
Day One: Iron & Wine - Promising Light

Taking his stage name from a dietary supplement he discovered in a supermarket while shooting a film, Sam Beam began recording softly plucked ditties late 2002 on a four track recorder at home. The works, of which, were to later find backing rhythms by the band Calexico, but it never happened and the demos were released as finished works instead. It was for the best, ultimately, since "The Creek Drank The Cradle" went on to universal, widespread acclaim and it launched his musical career.

What began as intimate, unplugged b-sides of an alt country singer songwriter that never was would later blossom into well polished and more confident hymns with 2004's "Our Endless Numbered Days," and beyond into even more developed and eccentric entries that saw Sam's creativity teeter between jazz, blues, and even pop. But it's today's entry from the aforementioned 'Creek' that solidifies, in this user, Sam's core sentimentality; an acoustic guitar, and a soft voice that weave together to form the shape of a warm, comforting flame.

Regardless of his intentions, he knows how people would react. It doesn't matter if "we live in a society," you still have to conform to norms. You honestly can't brazenly display such symbols, especially in the vicinity of school children, and expect to be left alone over it.
