Don't know if this came up last week, but I just heard on the radio that
Weiss is the inspiration behind Rickie Lee Jones "Chuck E.'s in Love."

And it's a bit of info that Chuck's often considered an albatross. Hopefully
this new album will redefine how folks think of him. It is quite a good,
rollicking time. Twang content: his backing band at last week's schmoozy Viper
Room record release party included Tony Gilkyson and Don Heffington. Weiss
calls Gilkyson, the best guitarist he's ever played with.
