Jackson C. Frank

  Another tragic, sad sack classic long lost Folk singer/ songwriter.  This Paul Simon produced debut album by Frank was to be his first and last release, due to bouts of depression and mental illness, but his writing style did influence a slew of his contemporaries ... unfortunately Jackson learned music hospitalized after a tragic school fire when he was a boy, then became a recluse in his closing years, living on the streets, jumping from institution to institution, getting his eye accidentally shot out by a pellet gun, and then a pneumonia induced expiry at the age of 56 ... YOW!!  Talk about your stacked decks!

City And Colour -- Sometimes

  Hipster Indie Folk, what can I say about this mindless poser crap other than I like to refer to them as sh*tty and colour ... so yeah ... f*ck this pussy fart music!  Oh wait that was too close to a compliment!
