Pigmeat Markham - Here Come The Judge 1968

Pigmeat Markham	Dewey Markham aka David Pigmeat Markham	Durham, North Carolina, USA
Apr 18 1904 – Dec 13 1981 age 77	Official Website	Wikipedia

Arguably known as one of the very first Rhythm And Poetry* pieces made in history (1968), 'Here Comes The Judge' brought powerful beats, bass and vocals to the Soul-Funk dance floors. Its Spoken Rhymes aesthetic would influence and conquer the World more than a decade after on the Brooklyn & Bronx neighborhoods. A wonderful landmark for a genre to come. Feel the Beats, Feel The Bass, Feel the Voice! ~Discogs
* I don't agree with that date or that RAP stands for rhythm and poetry... JimG
