Just a white boy from Illinois

[Devin Miller]

Richard,

I play in a blues band with the son of Snooky Pryor — his name is Richard Pryor. I am the only peckerwood in the band. I am also a disc jockey, photojournalist and I own two newspapers.

When i was a student I interned in Peoria — I was dreading the experience going into it. The town turned out to be pretty cool as it is still pretty much a working class union stronghold. The problem I found is that the motherfuckers in charge in P-town didn't want to name a street after you.

This would be like Florance Italy not wanting to name a street after Michalangelo. Can I get a mutherfuckin' witness here?

Anyway, just wanted to tell you that I grew up listening to your shit through my Dad who was a working class peckerwood who hid "That Nigga's Crazy" in his closet and I found it, listened, and was blown away that this was the same cat who I had seen in "The Toy".

Humor equals truth and we need you now more than ever with that moron GW in office.

Long live King Richard. M
