Thanks for this post. I had never heard of Daniel Johnston before, but I have just taken the time to read about his life and career and listen to his music. This speaks to me on a number of levels.

I must have listened to his version of “Unpack Your Adjectives” on the Schoolhouse Rocks cover album 100 times. He was one of a kind.

Met him and saw him play live twice

My mom knew him and his family, I grew up on his music and managed to see him perform live twice.
He was such a tremendous influence on my taste.

I had the great good fortune to get to record a song with Daniel... a cover of Bowie's "Scary Monsters", for his Electric Ghosts side project. I did all the music, he sang, and the backing vocals were my after-school students. "Jack Medicine" is my friend Don Goede.
