The End of Chronic Schizophrenia
"Wesley Willis: Rock and roll star, artist, poet, movie star and friend to all he met passed away last night from Leukemia at the age of 40. The six foot five, 320 pound Chicago area musician who cut his teeth on the streets selling city landscape drawings and playing music on his tiny Casio keyboard was infamous for his raw insightful songs and ability to draw his audiences into a schizophrenic's take on reality."I loved WW the first time I laid ears on the bootleg (that's right illegally copied) tape a friend made for my wife. His passing ranks up there with Joey Ramanoe and Joe Strummer. If you haven't heard of him, check out Wesley Willis' tunes.
