Daniel Johnston "Fun" LP (Aqua)

Daniel Johnston's major label debut Fun was originally released in 1994 on Atlantic Records while he was housed in a mental institution. Featuring some of Daniel's finest songwriting and boasting the most "accessible" sound of his eccentric and deep catalog, producer Paul Leary (Butthole Surfers) eloquently preserves the singer/songwriter's earnest appeal and wraps it in sympathetic musical support. The aspiring cartoonist's playful, symbol-heavy sketches have graced many of his album covers, including Fun. 1 Love Wheel2 Life in Vain3 Crazy Love4 Catie5 Happy Time6 Mind Contorted7 Jelly Beans8 Foxy Girl9 Sad Sac + Tarzan10 Psycho Nightmare11 Silly Love12 Circus Man13 Love Will See You Through14 Lousy Weekend15 Delusion + Confusion16 When I Met You17 My Little Girl18 Rock 'N' Roll / Ega
