Blues Run The Game | Finger-style Classic by Jackson C Frank

A nice bit of finger-style from Jackson C Frank. Great song, quite easy to play, and a good practical illustration of some of the essential picking patterns I looked at a few weeks ago.

Your hard work and big heart resonates with your level of mastery. No one can thank you enough for sharing these invaluable lessons ❤️ lots of love and respect man 💯

Nice job. I also really like Simon & Garfunkel's version they recorded for the 1966 album 'Sounds of Silence.'

Fun fact: Paul Simon produced Frank's one and only album.

That was a nice change, you have a unique timbre in your singing voice, which is very pleasant.
I 'll give this one a go if for no other reason than my thumb rocking needs some serious work.
