RETURNS: We generally do not accept returns except if something is not as described, and we take care to make sure everything fits our description. Sometimes CDs or vinyl will have a "cut-out" slice or "promo punch" either in the corner or through the UPC code - we will include this in the description if applicable. If there is a problem with an item, contact us and we will figure out the best action to take. We do NOT accept returns if you decide you simply don't like the item, or have buyer's remorse - buy wisely, and ask questions if necessary. Damage incurred during shipping should be brought up with the carrier but is extremely rare as we box everything adequately, including using extra cardboard for protection.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMBINING SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS WE SELL:

Use "Add To Cart". Before paying, there is a button marked "Ask Seller For A Total" - click this. Wait one business day for us to change the invoice or else it will charge you full shipping for each item (we will not refund extra shipping once paid). This may not work from a phone, only a computer. We have to change shipping by hand - typically we charge what is close to the actual cost with maybe a $1 USD handling fee per item to cover the cost of packing materials.

Item Summary:

Nobody could have suspected the path that Clarence Henry Reid would take during the 1960s. During this time he worked as a singer/songwriter and producer for the likes of KC & The Sunshine Band, Bobby Byrd, Gwen McCrae, and various others. He would also release his own compositions, including the deep soul classic "Nobody But You Babe", which would become a sampling favorite of KRS-One, Erykah Badu, DMX, and more.

Though Reid maintained a reputation as a consummate professional among the romantic soul crowd, outside of his day-job he turned a complete 180, writing and performing humorous, deliberately raunchy and sexually-explicit parodies of songs. These parodies would be relegated strictly to friends at parties, and wouldn't see a wide audience until the 1970s hit. In 1971 Reid would gather a collection of studio musicians, including famed R&B sidemen Timmy Thomas & Benny Latimore on keys, and Little Beaver on guitar, to finally commit these parodies to wax. In order to protect his identity as a songwriter Reid took on the stage name Blowfly, and dressed as a comic book super villain for live performances and photos. From there he would release numerous studio albums of similarly crude parodies throughout the 70s and 80s, which were enormously popular as party records. These records would also go on to become a wealth of sampling fodder for artists like Jurassic 5, The Pharcyde, DJ Shadow, Eazy-E, and many more, as well as lead Reid to collaborate with artists as varied as soul contemporary King Coleman, to former Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra, to ganja-centric rapper Afroman.

1978's Blowfly's Disco Party was no less lewd than its predecessors, putting a funky-disco spin on Reid's signature blend of explicit parodies, and deliberately cheeky tracks. No track is safe from Reid's dirty lyrics, as he parodies classic Motown hits, Delta blues songs, and even his own discography. (His naughty spin on his own deep soul hit "Nobody But You, Babe", becomes "Nobody's Butt But Yours, Babe".)
