There is an "Roger Miller Official Website" which contains a lengthy biography. (I wish it contained a handy discography and lyrics, but apparently it doesn't.) I haven't read it yet, so I don't know if it deals with his alcoholism. I do recall there was a long hiatus in his career when he wasn't much heard from.

Yeah, I admire his songs. He would be a good candidate for a tribute album. Does anybody know if one exists? (If so, please post a message here AND on the tribute album thread.)
