There’s absolutely nothing funny about a quadriplegic in a wheelchair. Unless, of course, that person is John Callahan. For nearly a decade, this irreverent cartoonist has been shocking America with his own special brand of wicked humor. In the world of Callahan, nothing is sacred, nothing is taboo and nothing is funnier! Callahan writes songs? Callahan sings? Callahan plays harmonica? What’s the world coming to???? The London Independent calls his songs “Beautiful, but dark…”. He wrote all the music and lyrics himself and is backed up by many notable musicians. The album is produced by blues legend Terry Robb, with a special cameo appearance by Tom Waits. In all seriousness, John Callahan is an award winning cartoonist whose work appears in newspapers worldwide in addition to having published a dozen books. He has been featured on NPR, 60 Minutes and the cover of the New York Times Sunday Magazine in addition to being the only cartoonist mentioned in the O.J. Simpson trial.

Here you go: part two of the excellent Bedhead-bootlegs, featuring some surprising cover versions, eg Sonic Youth and Madonna (!).
Remember, if you plan on burning these files to disc, then head over to Ryan Adams Archive, and use the torrents instead. These feature lossless formats like flac, and sound better than mp3.
