Music reviews of Best of
Music Review: Compilation of Many Great Bits from Moreland, Georgia's Favorite Son
Rating: 4 Stars
Lewis, may he rest in peace, was the only person from Moreland, Georgia to have books show up on the New York Times Bestseller list. As he said - he was also the only person from Moreland, Georgia who ever HEARD of the New York Times Bestseller list.
He was unashamedly Southern and just as proudly a graduate of the University of Georgia - and he wasn't afraid to bash things non-Southern or even just non-UGA. Today much of his material sounds homophobic, misogynistic, and hateful of Yankees, Doctors and other things outside his sphere. I think from his perspective he would have said that he was only proud of his heritage - although it is the same perspective that makes some Southerners waive their Confederate Flags to celebrate their "heritage" which simultaneously looking to non-Southerners as racist, homophobic, misogynistic, etc.
Wow - I didn't start this review to bash Lewis Grizzard, who I thought was a brilliantly funny man, but I thought it was worth mentioning for folks who might be offended.
His stories on this CD are funny - some of them hilarious. He saves some of his best barbs for himself. He corrects a feminist who thought he was against Women's Liberation: "Au Contraire, Madame, I've given three of them their freedom myself!" On his piece regarding his open heart surgery: "Heart surgery will make you reconsider your position on narcotics!"
So - if you don't mind hearing stories from a distinctly pre-PC Southern perspective, you can't get much funnier than Lewis Grizzard.
