We just wanted to take a harmony joyride down the same path that Wesley had traveled before us. On Conceiving the Cover This tune was created in honor of Wesley Willis. He was a marvelous musical mastermind whose artistic contributions will last eons. We simply wanted to demonstrate the level of inspiration Wesley had shown us throughout the years. We hope that everyone will be a bit slimmer after hearing this song. Wesley Willis in Three Words Whip (a) Mules ass (with a belt) On the Web www.tribalgenes.com Close Window
