Rudy Ray Moore – His Filthy Best

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 603843) Dolemite, 1970s — Condition: New Copy

Raunchy madness from the legendary Rudy Ray Moore – a collection of some of his best moments from the 70s – pulled from a host of super-rare party records! Moore's become the stuff of legend in recent years – finally getting some mainstream due for the revolutionary way he blended music, comedy, and some very powerful language – into a rich catalog of recordings that circulated strongly at a grassroots level in the pre-hip hop years. Countless folks cite Rudy as an influence – not just for the way he could tell it like it is (or was), but also for his ability to weave together strands of African-American history and experience into his own badass sound – pushing consciousness further, while still referencing his roots. The track list here is great – a good distillation of Rudy's classic comedy albums for Kent – on tracks that include "Dolemite", "Pimpin Sam", "Campaign Speech", "3 Boyfriends", "The Streaker", "How Grewsome", "Signifying Monkey", "The Sighs Of Love", and "Petey Wheatstraw".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
