Blues Run the Game . . . I'd never heard it before. Not bad at all.
Is there a recommended album?

yes, you can buy his one and only album - "jackson c frank". i only got mine the other week and have being playing it non stop. an absolute gem of an album. the guy's life story is tragic but he was considered the best in the london folk scene of the early 60's till he fecked off back to america and blew his chance of making it.
paul simon produced the album, and i think got a lot of ideas from him, certainly the guitar style. check it out.

late 60s early 70s the folk club boom was well over. guy had to get himself a band. sounds like he was copying the "english" folk style of singing, too. the songs might have been cute but the sound was about 7 years out of date.

highway 61 came out in 65. paul simon overdubbed his folk stuff with a band in 1965:
"Simon and Garfunkel's first LP, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. was released on October 19, 1964 and comprised twelve songs in the folk vein, five of them written by Simon. The album initially flopped, but East Coast radio stations began receiving requests for one of the tracks, Simon's "The Sound of Silence." Their producer, Tom Wilson, overdubbed the track with electric guitar, bass, and drums, releasing it as a single that eventually went to number one on the pop charts in the USA"
paul was producing frank's album at the time... like, he could have told the guy, right?
1965 was too late.

chess wouldn't let muddy use his own musicians on his early recordings - 1948 to 1952 - so you hear really sophisticated guitar work but no drums and little bass. to compensate for this muddy recorded on different labels under different names with his own group. it was more like the real muddy. less cool, more animal. here's rollin' and tumblin' parts 1 and 2 (a side and b side) recorded in the same year as the chess record, 1950. gives you an idea of what they sounded like live. cream obviously based their cover on this version. www.sendspace.com/file/uyfke4www.sendspace.com/file/ugo65x |

the green manalishi live in 1970 just before peter green flipped and the group became something else. worth sitting out the poor vocal sound at the beginning for the amazing guitar, bass and drums at the end: www.sendspace.com/file/1e6pwn |
