Wild's Troubled Mind
Billy Childish (real name Steven John Hamper) has been apart of many bands over his 35 year career and has released over 100LP's! His most recent band Wild Billy Childish And The Buff Medways has released only 4 CD's, but all 4 have been excellent releases and have some pure stunning tracks. The guys a lyrical genius. He's also published more than 40 collections of poetry, written three novels, and produced more than 2,500 paintings. Childish is also known for his explicit and prolific work: he has detailed his love life and childhood sexual abuse, notably in his early poetry and the novel My Fault. Although the guy may be a little bit messed up, he's still pure legend. Here's my favorite Billy Childish track.Wild Billy Childish And The Buff Medways Troubled Mind

Yes, I love this one. Clearly one of the best Childish. Well, actually seeing him play live in either Dirty Water Rats or Pleasure Unit is pretty much the closest to "best". Especially on a garaged-out Sit Next To My Fire...cool blog b.t.w.
