Is there a musician who had a shittier life than Jackson C. Frank?

Why did they choose such a shitty pitcure for his album? He looks like a fat hobo in it.
Mason Stewart
He WAS a fat hobo...
Mason Cooper
Not when the album was released IIRC.
Isaac Robinson
Well, at least he was influential. I believe Nick Drake really liked him and there are some recordings of some covers Nick did of his songs.
Julian Foster
>Born during French rule of your country >Life is shitty >French leave, there's hope to become as great as the West >Music industry is huge, became renown as "Cambodian Elvis" >He has a family that he sings to provide >Suddenly, the country is captured by a coup and he's forced out of his home >In the riots, the masters for everything he ever made is tossed into huge fires >Pol Pot takes control of the new regime and decides to kill every artist and intellectual - Sinn Sisamouth is both, and his (pregnant) wife is a ballerina, meaning they, their first child, and their unborn child are all targets >Tries to hide; probably saw that everyone who sings or hums one of his old songs gets shot for supporting the old way of life, even children (children actually got their heads bust open against a tree to save bullets) >Gets caught and gets tortured for weeks before they decide that it's better to just drag him off to the killing fields and shoot him >He tries to win his freedom by singing a song so beautiful it moves a guard to tears; they shoot him and the guard and toss them in a giant pile of bodies >The Khmer Rouge often didn't shoot people in the head, so he probably slowly bled to death >Probably saw his wife shot and his child beaten to death because they kill men last
The Khmer Rouge was easily one of the lowest points of human existence.

He had a childhood sweetheart at 11, probably had already lost his virginity to her, fucking Chad

Probably some unknown musician who was born into an oppressive fascist/communist regime and was killed with all of their works and possibly entire life being removed from history by the government

You can point to similar atrocities in Capitalist societies. The Holocaust or the Armenian genocide for example.

The economical policies might have been capitalist but the regimes who conducted it were not even slightly democratic
Zachary Miller
how is that relevant? The United States isn't a democracy either. Most countries aren't.
Aiden Ortiz
jews did 9/11

So why are you talking about capitalism/communism when you think its an issue of authoritarianism/democracy?

Because it is? Communism is more than an economic policy, there's the social engineering and totalitarian aspect to it too.

Michael Carter
I don't think the ideology of communism has ever faithfully been enacted though? Usually when there is a public appetite for communism someone will see it as an opportunity to wield absolute power
Liam Stewart
Hitler was corporatist as fuck. Just because they had socialist in their party name doesn't mean the way they ran the country was anything like socialism. There were factions in the party who did believe in the socialism of national socialism, they were purged by Hitler.
