![]() ![]() I saw this CD reviewed on one of the blog sites I used to frequent and it looked interesting, so I bought it when I found it for cheap a while later. RUIDO DE RABIA / ULTIMO GOBIERNO - split CD (I really don't know anything about either of these bands. "Sensuous Black Man" might be the dirtiest thing ever recorded.) The Player -The Hustler" CDR* (I downloaded both of these, both of them are awesome. RUDY RAY MOORE - "The Sensuous Black Man. This stuff stands on it's own even without knowing the Dolemite part of his career.) Musically this stuff is similar to what James Brown was doing at the time, the stuff he released on the great "Roots of a Revolution" 2CD set. He sounds somewhat like John Lee Hooker and Geno Washington mixed. Rudy had a strong voice and sings better than you would think. RUDY RAY MOORE - "Hully Gully Fever" CD (This is a collection of his old soul records from the 50s and 60s. Some of them have been reissued recently.) I'd love to find downloads of more of his old records. This shit's ridiculous, obviously, the sort of stuff you can only listen to in private, but it's awesome. This is one of his later albums and it's a mixture of filthy R&B ala Clarence Carter and the spoken bits he made famous during his heyday. He was a one man mogul, a true independent film maker who succeeded outside of the mainstream on his own terms and left a string of great releases behind him. RUDY RAY MOORE - "21st Century Dolemite" CD (Rudy Ray Moore made his name first by singing legitimate soul music in the late 50s and early 60s, then with some of the filthiest party records ever recorded, then finally with the great Dolemite movies of the 70s. I don't have anything add about the music I didn't cover in my above post, either.) I just remember being really angry about him losing it. I'm sure I replaced whatever it was he lost, but I can't recall what it was now. I don't remember what CD I loaned him, but he lost it and gave me this instead. ROTTREVORE - "Iniquitous" CD (Ah, all the great without the added bass! I got this from Daryl/Disma in 1995 or so. ![]() My stereo farts every time I play this and it's completely fucked on my iPod.) I have both of their 7"s, they weren't this fucking bassy. There's so much bass pumped into this CD it's almost unlistenable as a result. Necroharmonic are a great label and do nice work with their reissues, usually, but the mastering on this CD is fucked. This CD collects their demos and 7"s, everything but their full length, I think. I never realized how similar Daryl from Funebrarum/Disma's vocals sounded to these dudes. ROTTREVORE - "Disembodied" CD (These guys were great, probably the heaviest and sludgiest death metal band in American history, certainly in the 90s anyway. CDRs without asterisks behind them were originally issued as CDRs. (*) asterisks note things that are burned copies and not an original release. I've spent this past week on Christmas break at home sick with my wife and grandson (who are both sick, as well), so I haven't listened to a damn thing as a result. ![]() While I love David Sedaris, listening to all of his books non-stop in a row isn't very enjoyable. I found myself trapped in audiobook hell for a few days.
