Aleister Crowley is known as the wickedest man in the world, and has been a fascinating influence on rock n roll for the last 50 years!  Everyone from Ozzy Osbourne to the Beatles to Led Zeppelin to the Rolling Stones to David Bowie and the Red Hot Chili Peppers have referenced Crowley in their lyrics, videos, and personas.
