For those who believe that "wardrobe malfunction"s and sex-crazed
hip-hop heroes are inarguable proof of the coarsening of our culture
and an omen of the decline of western civilization, this compilation
will set you straight. Lascivious music is not a modern invention,
but long part and parcel of the American scene, with Eat to the
Beat: The Dirtiest of the Dirty Blues pulling together "The Dirtiest
of Their Dirty Blues," as the subtitle baldly states. That's no idle
boast, these 28 songs are enough to give a censor conniptions and
send the modest into a swoon of shock.
Sure, some of the songs are loosely veiled in metaphor, but there's
no mistaking the meaning of "Rotten Cocksuckers' Ball," "Somebody
Else Was Suckin' My Dick Last Night," or "Mother Fuyer." Jaw
dropping indeed, but in case you still don't believe what you're
hearing, the enclosed booklet boldly reproduces every song's lyrics.
Amazingly, the bulk of them were cut in the post-war period for
jukebox play, where the raunchiest of the bunch proved the biggest
money-spinners. The rise of formatted radio put paid to the
jukebox's power, and led inevitably to the swift demise of this
popular, if now risquΘ art form.
The sumptuous packaging belies the grit within, with the CD enclosed
in a cardboard digipack that resembles an old vinyl sleeve, and a
90-page booklet providing bios of every artist within, info on each
song, and, of course, the lyrics. As for the music itself, blues is
only one of the featured styles, big-band jazz, boogies, R&B, doo
wop, and bebop all raise their salacious heads to boot. Performing
the provocative numbers are a host of international names - Jackie
Wilson, Dinah Washington, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, the Clovers and the
Dominoes among them, as well as stars instantly recognizable to any
blues/R&B fans.
Deft remastering restores the numbers to as pristine-as-possible
quality, a must for collectors. And while collectors are obviously
the main market for this compilation, so much great music and fun
are to be found within that one suspects modern bands will soon be
offering up covers, samples, and snippets of many of these songs in
the near future.
