[1]
Jackson and His Computer Band is an IDM artist signed to Warp Records consisting of Jackson Fourgeaud, a 26-year-old Parisian composer. His style has been described as "a style orgy, a psychedelic celebration of conflict."
After his acid house debut on Pumpking records in 1996, Sound Of Barclay released the "Sense Juice" and "Gourmet EPs" under the name Jackson & His Computer Band. Even then, these thumping filtered house cuts sounded weirdly different to the prevailing "French Touch" style of Daft Punk and Cassius, leading to articles in NME, I-D, Jockey Slut and the like. On the back of this acclaim, Jackson was commissioned to remix an array of artists, sprinkling his fucked-up magic over Femi Kuti, Air, Vanessa Paradis, Freeform Five and Jean Jacques Perrey and Luke Vibert's forthcoming "Moog Acid". No one has yet remixed Jackson. This year he's DJed at parties in London (everywhere from The Social to Harrod's) and recently terrorised the idyllic Territoires Electroniques festival in Aix-en-Provence. Perhaps you caught his excellent DJ set on Radio 1's Breezeblock show in March. Now Jackson is working on a killer live show which will be unveiled around the time of Smash's release in September.

[2]
Jackson is the name of a little band out of San Antonio, Texas. Chad W. Eaton (Electric Guitar, Vocals), Cameron Feil (Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin, Vocals), Daniel Palmer (Bass Guitar), Andrew Vespia (Electric Guitar), Robert Betts (Drums), Mills Ligon (Manager) and a variety of visiting musicians fill the Jackson lineup.
They describe their sound as "A little bit country, a little bit Rock and Roll."

[3]
Jackson O'Connell-Barlow (stage names: Iguanadon, Grape-a-Don, Nate Kukla, and Mr. Pennsylvania) makes up one half of the duo Grand Buffet along with Jarrod Weeks (stage names: M-Dog, Lord Grunge, Matt Kukla, Fred Durts). A hip-hop duo from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Their music is a unique brand of humorous, often satirical rap.

[4]
There's another band called Jackson. Their 6 song self-titled debut release came out in spring of 2003. It's somewhat of an all-star punk-and-rock outfit comprised of CHRIS SHIFLETT (FOO FIGHTERS, ME FIRST & THE GIMME GIMMES, NO USE FOR A NAME), SCOTT SHIFLETT (FACE TO FACE), and PETE PARRADA (FACE TO FACE, SAVES THE DAY). They also released a 7" record called All the Way in late 2003. The band isn't full-time as some members are obligated to other bands. Their sound has been described as Weezer meets Teen Idols. Jackson have since changed their name to Jackson United

i seem to tumble in the wind
i wait for it to begin
when i look at you
i ain't too proud to say
i once loved a girl this way

i bring trouble on my lonesome self
i see danger in each offered help
times are hard
the money just won't come through
i would be alone if not for you

they brought me in on a flatcar
down from old hong kong
tried to tell me what i was doing
was absolutely wrong
tried to make me over
into a man of steel
but i knew i would have to kneel

from the plains of alberta
with its wheat so wild and strong
i rolled over the Northlands
till i came to saskatchewan
from a hardback in my satchel
i read the words quite clear
hurry home to your loved ones now
wintertime is near

i seem to tumble in the wind

This man suffered so much pain, physical, emotional, psychic, and his sound is so raw, nothing filtered. But compared to his early work I hear an element of contentment in this, as though he has been through every heartache and misery imaginable and he's still singing, composing and picking guitar, there's nothing more the world can do to him and nothing that can stop his music coming through.

I see this in the photo too. You don't have to know his story to see that this man had a very hard life, but I see that contentment there also. Not too long previous he had been homeless, literally a target for random violence, exposed to the elements and in desperate need of care. Where was his next meal coming from? Where was it safe to sleep? To have four walls around him and a roof overhead, people looking after him, appreciating and recording his music, feeling safe, and still playing, writing and singing so well, must have been such a blessed relief for him, some respite at last. Even the cigarette in his mouth tells a little story, when he was on the streets he would likely have been cadging them or picking up butts.

Jackson C Frank had so much courage, character and intelligence, and such extraordinary musicality. I hope my assessment is true and his final years did give him some of the respite, contentment and satisfaction that were denied him for so long.

The chords are simple--capo on 5th fret, G chord with descending bass to Em, C chord, G chord in the first line, then the same for the second line except change the last G to D.....then C chord, G chord desc to Em, the last line G desc to Em C to D to G

You know Jackson was not only burned on the face in a fire as a young man, but also shot in the eye by a boy shooting at homeless people with a pellet gun in Central Park (Jackson was homeless for two decades). You see that face? These are the blues. Jackson knew the blues. Look up Blues Run the Game. He's an old soul. Cheers to Jackson C Frank.

I found out about him around 07/08 as a young adult, searching for old Country and Folk music on the internet. I found his album on some old blog along with a brief of his sad story. That album has been burned deep into my soul after all this years. Back then my english wasn´t the best, but I could still understand most of his lyrics. If we can really watch our whole life passing in front of our eyes when we die, I wish it to play along with Jackson C. Frank beautiful music.

I bought his LP from a box of cutout LPs (remember those?) in the early or mid 60's. Never heard of him but I saw Paul Simon had produced the LP so I thought it might be OK. Took it home and played it again and again. Only a few years ago I found out about his life story. So sad.

So many comments from people who have never heard of Jackson... He was a 'musician's musician' like Richard Thompson, but with corresponding bad fortune. Paul Simon, Bert Jansch, and so many other songwriters of the 60's listed Jackson C Frank as a major influence. I bought 'Blues Run The Game' in the 80's when it was recommended by a friend. His music just gets better the more you listen.

4/4time in Bflat chords are Bflat Eflat and F but with capo on 3rd fret chords are G,C,Em,D.intro is G for 2 bars then C for two bars. The picking pattern is, play together 3rd fret 6th string and open 2nd followed by the open 3rd then open 4th repeat this and thats the first bar 2nd bar is the same as the first then play(C chord) 3rd fret 5th string together with 1st fret 2nd string then 3rd open then 2nd fret fourth then repeat thats the 3rd bar 4th is the same as the 3rd.

When the singing starts play G same picking as before but bass note moves from the 3rd fret of the 6th string for first 2 beats of bar 5 to the 2 fret (for beats 3and 4 of bar 5)then to the open 6th string this is like an Em minor chord I think or the D string might be open for this chord anyway this Em minor chord is played for the duration of bar 6,then go to C for bar 7 back to G for 8th bar.Bar 9and 10 and 11 are the same as bars 5 and 6 and 7 but for bar 12 go to the D chord.What a song

I love Dylan, but this man could write and play circles around him. This track haunts me. It's like from another dimension, like I shouldn't be hearing it. Like Nick Drake doing a cover of "Hurt." It shouldn't exist, but it's out there, in the ether, at a frequency your radio dial can't quite reach except on queer nights.
