Daniel Johnston Discography
This is a list of the discography of Daniel Johnston, who lived in Austin, Texas. Handmade cassettes Before the production of 'Yip/Jump Music' in 1983, Johnston had no way to copy his albums, and so each copy would be an entirely unique recording. The standardised copies of these albums were released when Stress Records purchased Johnston's back catalog in 1986.

Daniel Johnston
Daniel Dale Johnston (January 22, 1961 – September 11, 2019) was an American singer, musician and artist regarded as a significant figure in outsider, lo-fi, and alternative music scenes. Most of his work consisted of cassettes recorded alone in his home, and his music was frequently cited for its "pure" and "childlike" qualities. Johnston spent extended periods in psychiatric institutions and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He garnered a local following in the 1980s by passing out tapes of his music while working at a McDonald's in Dobie Center in Austin, Texas. His cult status was propelled when Nirvana's Kurt Cobain was seen wearing a T-shirt that featured artwork from Johnston's 1983 cassette album ''Hi, How Are You''. Johnston also created visual art, and his illustrations were exhibited at galleries around the world. His struggles with mental illness were the subject of the 2005 documentary ''The Devil and Daniel Johnston''. He died in 2019 of a suspected hear ...

Background Writing Daniel Johnston wrote the album over four years between 1984 and 1988. The song "True Love Will Find You in the End" is possibly the earliest and had initially appeared on Johnston's December '84 demo tape ''Retired Boxer.''

Johnston had spent the entirety of 1987 living in West Virginia with his parents; he was heavily medicated after a severe mental breakdown in December 1986 and found himself unable to write new material.

Fear Yourself
''Fear Yourself'' is an album by the American musician Daniel Johnston, released in 2003. It was produced by Mark Linkous. The album included an 8-page booklet with exclusive Daniel Johnston drawings. Critical reception ''The Independent'' wrote that the "fancy production ... works to a point, but, by the end, you find yourself preferring Johnston's usual eerie starkness." ''The Washington Post'' determined that "Johnston's pained, humble songs are eerie and sensuous, emotionally textured in a way that demands only amplification, and Linkous's vintage box of tricks suits the songs beautifully." ''The New York Times ''The New York Times'' (''the Times'', ''NYT'', or the Gray Lady) is a daily newspaper based in New York City with a worldwide readership reported in 2020 to comprise a declining 840,000 paid print subscribers, and a growing 6 million paid d ...'' concluded that Linkous's contribution to the music "reveals the cracked, epic romances hidden within Mr. Johnston's s ...
