VICTIM OF THE JOKE AN OPERA
Description
The 1971 concept album, 'Victim of the Joke? ... An Opera' is the third solo album by renowned producer, composer, and performer David Porter, released in 1971 on Enterprise. It achieved cult status, particularly thanks to numerous hip-hop samples (Puff Daddy, Wu Tang Clan, MF DOOM, etc.). Recognized as one of the "100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time" by Rolling Stone magazine, Porter began his career at Stax alongside his partner and writer Isaac Hayes. This ambitious LP testifies to Porter's endless creative spirit. 'Victim of the Joke' combines original soul music with an infusion of pop and covers (including a contagious rendition of The Beatles' "Help!") with dialogue interludes to tell a love story.Buy VICTIM OF THE JOKE AN OPERA at the best price
