RIP Jim Carroll




all star basketball player in high school, author, playwright, autobiographer, punk musician, poet and heroin addict who died of a reported heart attack on September 11, 2009 at his desk writing. Here is some information about the man called,"The Bob Dylan of the 8os." which I found a bit odd- since Dylan was alive, recording and performing at the time. Find his obit here. You may not know him but, you know this song and if you don't then- you're no friend of mine.
