{"title":"Clarence Reid","description":"\u003cp\u003eClarence Reid was an American musician, songwriter, and producer known for his distinctive dual career in music. His mainstream work included soulful ballads and funk, producing hits for artists like Betty Wright and Sam \u0026amp; Dave. However, Reid is arguably more infamous for his alter ego Blowfly, under which he released provocative, explicit parody songs often deemed the first \"dirty raps\". His influence extends across multiple genres, with his compositions being sampled by various hip-hop artists, demonstrating his significant impact on the musical landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"nobody-but-you-babe-send-me-back-my-money","title":"Nobody But You Babe\/ Send Me Back My Money","description":"\u003cp\u003eA terrific two-sided soul nugget from '69, this became Reid's only real penetration of the pop chart (his other charter peaked at #99) and his only Top 10 black hit. This despite the fact that he churned out more than a dozen great singles over the next few years. Oh well. Have a listen to the snippet of his one hit, which was actually intended as an \"answer song\" to the Isley Bros. hit single \"It's Your Thing\", and you'll see how much great funky soul there is to discover (and covet). :-) Note: This copy comes in a vintage Atlantic Group Records factory sleeve.
