11. Wesley Willis, the infamous austistic, schizophrenic 250lb black man, wrote a song about
Johnny Depp.
12. Johnny played lead slide guitar on this track because Oasis' guitarist was too drunk to do so. FYI: Johnny nailed it in one take.

15. A recent film featuring Johnny Depp, "Chocolat" includes this number on the soundtrack.

17. Johnny Depp showed his admiration for Jack Kerouac by playing him the movie "The Source", and also with this trubute/cover song.

I hope this mix doesn't make me look obsessed (even though I am). I find this is one of my greatest yet, and can't believe how much effort I put into it. Comments?

Regarding Track/Note #14: River Phoenix did die outside The Viper Room, and Samantha Mathis, with whom he duets on this mix,was his girlfriend at the time of his death and also with him when he died.

True, true. I should added some "Fear and Loathing" samples, but decided it was way too cheesy.
