The Legendary Stardust Cowboy's three Mercury 45s along with some Ohio obscurities a discerning record store pal in Cleveland squirreled away for me long long ago. Both Angel and Claire were local lounge Sinatras, the former liable to scare off even the wildest divorcée with his deranged BANG! BANG! BANG! scatting. Ernest & D.L. bring outsider art into the 80s, while Zahorchak is in an orbit all his own. Total WHAT, Jones?! Finally, a perfect photo of our hero in Vegas, dressed for success, from the interwebs.

I really, really need to hear what y'all think "belongs" with the ledge.... ;-)
Er, uh, I realized I was on thin ice here. Hopefully you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
No, I mean I really,really do!
So what I really mean is thank you,
I am a huge fan of Wesley Willis,a nd I think that is why I dig on the Lege. Just a regular guy trying to buck the trends and make music HIS way, no Autotune, no cookie cutter music. When you hear Lege, you know who it is. Great job on being your own man, and for having the strength to be truly different.
