In 1946, after strolling naked through his L.A. hotel lobby, then igniting a fire while smoking in bed, Charlie Parker was committed to Camarillo State Mental Hospital for six months. In 1954, following two suicide attempts, he was evaluated at New York's Bellevue Hospital as an "evasive personality with manifestations of primitive and sexual fantasies associated with hostility and gross evidence of paranoid thinking." Who better, then, to explicate "Crazeology"? There's just one problem, Doctor. This track shows an engaging personality with manifestations of advanced, fully contextualized creativity associated with camaraderie and refined evidence of audacious thinking. Sometimes even paranoids have enemies.
