who's the craziest?

[super ape]

in the battle for the championship of insanity, who do you think would win---

fight #1 eek-a-mouse vs lee scratch perry...

any others you can think of?

Peter Tosh had his moments. Didn't he believe that he was being haunted by evil spirits that would only leave him alone if he shouted 'bumboklaat!' at them?

[Funkyfred]

Jacob "Killer" Miller once chased some guys with a knife and tried to kill them, just because they stole his breakfast!!

Hmm, maybe that was just his character in the movie Rockers??

[super ape]

my bets are on scratch winning the title.
hr, better known for his bad brains frontage (his reggae is pretty terrible), is another whack job, but i dunno if he can even enter the ring with those already mentioned....

Prince Jazzbo....

listen to this (not a mashup or something.. and there's a whole range of similar bizarre output..)

What about Junior Byles? He went all Syd Barrett on us, had a complete mental breakdown and ended up as a crazy homeless guy, rooting through the trash for food.

333 is a wicked tune. Don't think it's an indication of insanity!! What's so weird about it? He's just using the sound of the number 3 as a rhyming scheme

There are people who don't know who Syd Barrett was?

Listening to Junior Byles' songs, it seems quite clear that there was a certain darkness to him and he was never in a happy/stable place. I don't suppose that the drugs helped - they rarely do. Hallucinogens can really f*ck you up - and forever, if you're wired that way - and then, before you know it, the party's over any everyone's gone home (metaphorically speaking). Back then, I don't suppose that people really knew that.
