Sebastian A. Bach It's such a rare feat to embody multiple distinct musical personalities so organically as Mike does. Wormstew has tons of their own songs and also covers Chissum and Pussy Cow songs. And then Chissum has tons of songs too, of which a small fraction are represented on this delightfully weird record. All these versions of all these songs self-evidently need to exist and be heard although they're all written by the same guy. I feel very fortunate to know him and his music. Favorite track: Sir Yabba Dabba Dabba Con Carne McWhistler.

John Brownell From the mind, er... *stomach* of Wormstew comes this collection of songs released under the moniker Chissum Worthington. The 20 songs included on this collection are mostly short, fun, comical, and *hungry*. While the lyrics are often silly, there is no lack of musicianship on this effort. As I listen I find myself surprised, often, at a chord change or arrangement choice. "I'm admitting to the world that I am cray," indeed! Never stop! Favorite track: Cricket In The Grass.

Get Set Go Choosing a favorite song on this album is like going into a pet store filled with adorable puppies and ranking them. Like, maybe, I can find a favorite. But, frankly, they're puppies and all adorable.

This album fills me with so much joy. It is hilarious, fun, joyful, ribald, subversive, and magical. It's like what I imagine R. Crumb would sound like if he made music and not art. Does that make sense?

It is brilliant. Just brilliant. Happy listening! Thank you, Chissum! Favorite track: Woompie Womp, The Wibble.

ericlea Fans of Chissum Worthington will certainly not be disappointed by this long-awaited collection of delightful absurdism and cheerfully misguided eroticism. Non-fans of Chissum Worthington WILL be disappointed that they were not previously fans of Chissum Worthington, but will NOT be disappointed in the fact that they have BECOME fans of Chissum Worthington thanks to this album of songs by the great and powerful Chissum Worthington. Favorite track: Cricket In The Grass.

Johnny pumpkin and the ballerina Are bringing their show to the sports arena There’ll be cats and coronas and a clown The Johnny Pumpkin Circus is coming to town The big tip is the big top is a fabulous event A trapeze made of jugglers in a saw dustesque-like tent A donkey, nay, a monkey with his finger up his nose A cowboy with a dummy that’s been drinking, and it shows Johnny pumpkin and the ballerina Are bringing their show to the sports arena There’ll be cats and coronas and a clown The Johnny Pumpkin Circus is coming to town The Hendersons will all be there, panang on a paper plate The lion with the open mouth will decide that one dude’s fate The hot dogs and taquitos, they’ll be dangling of your chin Along with bits of Fritos and some candy from Berlin Johnny pumpkin and the ballerina Are bringing their show to the sports arena There’ll be cats and coronas and a clown The Johnny Pumpkin Circus is coming to town

Clowns are funny with the smile they got They say they’re made of money But i know they’re not They’re made of flesh and blood and clown paint Like you and me, we’re made of most of that Like you and me, we’re made of most of that Clowns don’t travel on the money they earn Their plans unravel And they never learn They’re made of flesh and blood and clown paint Like you and me, we’re made of most of that Like you and me, we’re made of most of that

Mike Schnee Long Beach, California

I write and record songs under the moniker Wormstew and Chissum Worthington. I've got a ton of songs and I'm putting them in packs of 4, in no particular order. Some songs date from the late 90's. Some are pretty fresh. I've mixed them all up.There will also be new stuff, obviously. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! ... more
