Rock Over London, Rock on Chicago...

Sadly, the world said goodbye to Wesley Willis, the 40 year old schizophrenic singer/songwriter from Chicago who died on August 21st after a long battle with leukemia. Willis had a simple, yet very unique and quite strange musical style. Here are a few of his song titles that help explain him: Rock 'n Roll McDonalds, I'm Sorry that I got Fat, Birdman Kicked my Ass, and My Mother Smokes Crack Rocks. Reuters has the full story.
