I must be slipping because this show got past me Monday night:

Funny thing is, Rhythm Room is a well-established joint for blues acts, but they must be expanding their horizons to let in Blowfly, the Original Dirty Rapper. It’s the alter ego of Clarence Reid (check out All Music’s bio here), a successful songwriter/producer in the 70s.

Of course, I had to listen to his music. And it’s, well, hokey … and funky. You can’t possibly resist a song called Booty Bus.

You can pick up his library, including the latest, Fahrenheit 69, at eMusic.

Blowfly | Blowfly for President
Blowfly | Booty Bus
(Might wanna keep the volume down if you’re at work.)
