Dick Gregory- In Living Black and White / East and West (1961)
One of the reasons this Variation was considered for Redundancy was its failure to elect their Richard Claxton Gregory for President of the United States of America in 1968. Unlike other Variations, this one we are orbiting presently did not progress in the same way as the others. These vinyl testaments subverted the skin-color-transgressions of the times with something they lightly call "comedy." Other Variations understood this purveyor of it, accurately, to be their soothsayer.
