Wesley Willis--Feel the Power: Chicago schizophrenic street artist. Puts out 3 or 4 records a year. Usually, each of his CDs has 24 songs or so, each song about 3 minutes each, and all the songs are damn near the same (beats, tempo, etc.). He usually "sings" about his bus rides on CTA and Pace, friends of his, and concerts he attends. He was actually signed to American Recordings, and put out 2 records through them in 1996--Feel the Power and Fabian Road Warrior. Also has a band called the Fiasco that does indie-punk rock. Generally hangs out in Chicago's Wicker Park area--my ex-fiance actually saw him on the street one day...and didn't ask for his autograph...damn her!

Listen to one of his CDs, if only for some simple humor.

"Rock over London! Rock on Chicago!"

Radiohead--The Bends

Alice in Chains--Facelift

The Crow--soundtrack: Arguably one of the best soundtracks ever put together.
