MISC. NOTES   A compilation from various sources produced by Richard Buckley, Jr. "The Hip Gahn," "The Gettysburg Address," released and unreleased output for Hip Records in 1956. "God's Own Drunk," "The Nazz," "The Gasser," and a totally re-mastered "Scrooge" are drawn from Lord Buckley's World Pacific releases. "Is This The Sticker?" is drawn from Lord Buckley's 1955 RCA Victor release, Hipsters, Flipsters and Finger-Poppin' Daddies, Knock Me Your Lobes. Finally, "Baa Baa Blacksheep" is a previously unissued track, an outtake from the 1955 RCA Victor sessions.
   
 

LORD BUCKLEY LIVE! LINER NOTES

SHAMBHALA LION EDITIONS is please to present these digitally remastered versions from the original analogue tapes of eleven of Lord Buckley's now hard-to-find recordings - some available here for the first time. In settings ranging from the speakeasies of the 1920s to the jazz clubs and college campuses of the '60s, the jive slang monologues of Lord Buckley attracted generations of fans devoted to his unique visionary brand of humor. In bringing the lives of literary and historical figures hilariously down to street level, he showed us how to recognize ourselves in the, revealing something of the sorrow and joy of the human condition and showing us how to laugh at it. His legacy lives on in the many performers who have acknowledged his influence on their work - Lenny Bruce, Bob Dylan, Robin Williams, and Whoopie Goldberg among them.
