Hilariously racy monologues were a hallmark of Millie Jackson's concerts, as the title of Live and Uncensored implies. Beyond the foul-mouthed hijinks on this 1979 release, though, Jackson created witty narratives that covered everything from sexual foibles to soap operas, and in the process dressed down both sexes; hypocritically coy women are directed to "Give It Up," while in "The Rap" and "Be a Sweetheart," bumbling and sexually rabid men get roundly manipulated. Jackson turns TV critic on "The Soaps" to blast the inanity of daytime television, and on "Logs and Thangs" offers up some well-worn yet sophisticated sexual innuendo. And, yes, there is music here as well. Jackson delivers fine examples of her Bobby Womack/Stax-inspired brand of soul on "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right," "Just When I Needed You Most," and "What Am I Waiting For," and prefigures hip-hop diva Mary J. Blige with her slightly hoarse yet honeyed vocal delivery on "I Still Love You (You Still Love Me)" -- replete with some fine breakbeats. Womack gets his due as Jackson's medley of Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and Womack's own "Put Something Down on It" reveals the Brit's debt to the great soul writer/producer. Aside from a few forgettable moments like a classical music parody and some weak disco, Live and Uncensored is a strong document of Millie Jackson in her element. [This two-disc CD reissue of Live and Uncensored includes Jackson's 1982 follow-up album, Live and Outrageous, as a bonus.] ~ Stephen Cook

Best Millie Jackson Set I had both albums, then had them on tape, someone stole both of them, but now I'v go them back. I love the way she that she tells it like it is, especially the symphony. I listen to it when I want to tell someone off or I play it when I need a good laugh. Submitted by ladyg716 (Maryland) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 1 of 1 found this helpful.
Every Woman needs one Millie Jackson telling it like it is. She slams the soaps, the hypocrites, the chauvinists....
If you ever broke up with someone or got dumped, this one will make you feel better.
There are also some beautiful ballads and lovesongs, but mu all-time favorite is the "Phuck u Symphony". Submitted by leji2687 (Killeen, TX, USA)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Fantastic Theis album is by far the best live album around. Miile tells it like it is and that she does best. This CD showcases Millie's talents and keeps you in stictches. There will never be another live album that can top this. This is a must for fans young and old. Submitted by MJB (Kansas City) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
A Live Album Like Nothing Else! Millie Jackson may truly be THE most overlooked female singer of our time at least here in the USA. I many parts of the world she is a true superstar with a diverse following. While many people may know of her as the "x-rated" singer, the truth is that Ms. Millie can sing like few other people. These 2 live albums packed as one contain too many gems to list, but run the musical genre gamat from her own "Logs N Thangs" "All The Way Lover" "Hurts So Good" and the "Phuck You Symphony"to awesome covers of Toto's "Hold The Line", Kenny Roger's "Sweet Music Man", Lionel Richies "Still", and a great take on Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy". On many of her albums you willl notice a number of tracks listed as a "rap", this is not rap as we know it today, but back in the day she would add spoken verses to her songs and this was called a "rap".
Grab this CD while you can, I assure you, you've never heard anything like it, and you will be entertained. Submitted by kallan2 (North Fork of LI, NY, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

$12.49 Man, is this stuff great! So why don't you already have this in your collection? Perhaps you haven't heard of it yet, or perhaps you've just heard of Don & Dewey -- a pair of high school friends who started performing as a duo after playing in the Squires together -- who recorded many sides for Specialty Records in the late 50s. They never had hits on their own, but they wrote and recorded songs that others brought to the charts, including the Sonny Bono-penned "Koko Joe," and the originals "Big Boy Pete," "Jungle Hop," and the perennial garage ...
| | Golden State Soul: San Francisco Dancers & Smoochers CD (2000) (Import) United Kingdom
Live And Uncensored songs
$21.29 Even by the benchmark of obscure soul compilations, the music on this soul anthology is really arcane. Seventeen of the 24 tracks were previously unreleased, and what was released only appeared on tiny local labels. What it has in common was that it was all done at Leo Kulka's Golden State Recorders in San Francisco, mostly in the late '60s (although some was cut in the early '70s). The San Francisco area was not known as a beachhead of great soul music, and given that virtually all of these musicians are unknown and released little that saw the light of day, you might be suspicious that the results were distinctly minor-league. Yet this is actually one of the better collections of its kind (outclassing, for instance, numerous other obscure soul comps on the Kent/Ace labels themselves). While there was not a distinctly ...
