Dick Gregory as a stand up comedian is nowadays much forgotten. And it's a damn shame because everything he put out is somewhere between excellent and amazing. This is from the early period and it's hilarious. Especially the jokes about the KKK. It is as daring as that.
This one in particular is not as classic as Dick Gregory talks turkey but it is a bit easier to listen to given that the disc as 11 tracks of 2 to 5 min each, while the CD version of Dick Gregory talks turkey comes with only 2 tracks of 25min each. But that said, it is all great. Source: Amazon
