Gary Mule Deer – Yeah, But the Response was Great…

Gary Mule Deer Yeah, But the Response was Great...
Now available on iTunes!   Jonathan Winters - Cranky Calls

“In 1959 I took one guitar lesson, learned three chords and Mule Skinner Blues. I wrote “Tribute To Johnny Cash” using every Johnny Cash song I could think of.

I wrote “Dear John” for Johnny Cash and waited 15 years for him to record it. I don’t know if he ever will, but here it is.

Both “Tribute” and “Dear John” were produced by Randy Hart and the late Kin Vassy.” — Gary Mule Deer, 1997

Rich Little’s Dumb-ettes – A “Little” Tribute to Ol’ Blue Eyes

Rich Little Dumb-ettes: A "Little" Tribute to Ol' Blue Eyes
Now available on iTunes!   Jonathan Winters - Cranky Calls

“If 10,000 frankfurters, 10,000 buns and 10 gallons of mustard can mean the start of a beautiful picnic then Rich Little – through his unique talents – has changed it all into a magnificent banquet by inviting more than forty of the best known personalities of our time to assist him in this slightly irreverent, but warmly affectionate, tribute to the great Frank Sinatra …

… Everyone has their own memories of Frank Sinatra. To the world at large, he was a matchless interpreter of the popular song. To film buffs, he was a fine and often sensitive actor. To the media, he was an irksome hell raiser whose escapades made him an easy target for the tabloids and the scandal sheets. But to Rich Little, who knew him for many years and performed with him on numerous occasions, he was … Well, why not let Rich tell it?” — Ken Barnes

La Wanda Page – Mutha is Half a Word

La Wanda Page Mutha is Half a WordBeware the fruminous Bandersnatch … and here she is! Years of eating fire as the Bronze Fire Goddess have forged La Wanda’s tongue into a dazzling white-hot weapon. Like a cat-o-nine tails she lashes at the square society about her with rare humor and insight, heavily laced with sex-symbolism and womanly wiles.

La Wanda closes the gap between words and language in “Mutha Is Half A Word” and puts language through the most rigorous, bawdy, raucous jokes and gems ever to scorch the atmosphere. Words will never be the same!

La Wanda Page – Preach On, Sister, Preach On!

La Wanda Page Preach On, Sister, Preach On!
Now available on iTunes!   La Wanda Page - Preach on Sister!  Preach On

A comedienne turned actress who rose to fame as outspoken bible-thumper Aunt Ester in Redd Foxx’s hit sitcom Sanford and Son, LaWanda Page performed with such other famous contemporaries as Richard Pryor and Rudy Ray Moore before finding success on the small screen. A native of Cleveland who grew up in St. Louis, Page first hit the stage as an exotic dancer and chorus girl billed “the Bronze Goddess of Fire” (due to her penchant for playing with fire on-stage) before fully realizing her talents as a standup comic. Subsequently approached by Foxx to star in Sanford and Son, Page tickled television viewers’ funny bones with her memorable role as Foxx’s aggressively religious sister-in-law in the original series’ spin-off The Sanford Arms, and the 1980 revival Sanford. Throughout the 1980s and ’90s, Page crafted a feature-film career with minor roles in such comedies as Zapped! (1982), My Blue Heaven (1990), Friday (1995), and Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996). Always retaining her fiery approach to comedy, Page also performed on-stage in productions of The Inquest of Sam Cooke and Take It to the Lord…Or Else.

La Wanda Page – Pipe Layin’ Dan

La Wanda Page Pipe Layin' Dan
Now available on iTunes!   La Wanda Page - Pipe Layin Dan

LA WANDA is more than a match for any man, with a double-bladed tongue that tears off piece after piece of fantastic laugh-loaded comedy. Recorded and photograhed live and in bed, the action is sometimes frantic. The audience participation gets out of hand and Pipe Layin’ Dan can’t lay it down fast enough to please all the performers and spectators til LA WANDA joins in.

La Wanda tells it like it is … hot, fast and fragrant sex, soul and sin intermingled. Leaving out none of the four-letter stuff, keeping her one eye on Pipe Layin’ Dan and the other on the man she’s workin’, both hands busy in the tool box and her mouth goin’ for the record is what makes La Wanda the Queen of Soul Comedy … the funniest broad in bed or on record.

Be a plumber’s helper … pick up on Pipe Layin’ Dan … he’s got the world’s greatest plumbing (according to La Wanda) .. and La Wanda’s got the biggest, funniest, sexiest mouth to tell of it (and other bawdy stories).
