At least that’s the story in authorized biography of the actor and comic. Does Chase really approve? After all, I just read a recent bit on him in Time Magazine where he stated that there have been many things written about him in books, none of which are true. So be it. I just wish some crazy-ass label would reissue is bizarre comedy album from 1980. If you wanna know how much Chevy thought drugs were amusing at the time, just dig the crrrr-azy track “Rapper’s Plight” from it. Or his cover of “I Shot The Sheriff” will illustrate it just as well.
