Dick  Gregory's Frankenstein (1970)

Classic Dick Gregory LP originally released in 1970 on Poppy Records.
It's interesting to note how little things have changed since the release of this album in 1970. In the nine years since Dick Gregory first appeared on vinyl, he'd built up quite a reputation for his strident political beliefs, evolving from a standup comedian into a social commentator, and Frankenstein resembles a comedy album only so far as Gregory manages to get laughs in between pointed jabs at society and the government. Yes, it can seem a bit preachy, and yes, the delivery is very groovy (you can only hear him say "dig it now" so many times before it starts to grate), but the message is what's important: No matter how many important strides are made, race continues to be a factor in the way people treat each other, in the way laws are made, and in the way society as a whole functions. Maybe the names of the protagonists and antagonists have changed, but the message of this album still carries a lot of weight, even into the new millennium. - all music guide

A Day in the Death of Donny B. (1969)

A Day in the Death of Donny B.
A Day in the Death of Donny B is a 1969 American short docudrama written and directed by Carl Fick and shot in cinéma-vérité style. Mostly considered an anti-drug film, it was made for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The film follows its protagonist, Donny B, a young black man who appears to be a heroin addict, as he makes his way through the cruel ghettos of New York City. He tries to score money for his next fix by stealing hubcaps, purse-snatching, panhandling, and engaging in street gambling.

The short film's soundtrack mostly consists of voice-overs of his parents despairing over his future, former addicts describing the junkie lifestyle, and cops informing the audience of the consequences of illegal drug use and addiction. Through the run time of 14 minutes, a blues-like tune plays over the footage and voice-overs, with vocals that come in and out during the film, narrating Donny B as he does wrong.

Easy To Get - VD Propaganda Film

Easy To Get | VD Propaganda Film w/ Ruby Dee + Paul Robeson (1947)
A rare gem produced in 1947 by the Army Pictorial Service (Astoria, Queens), it contains the earliest existing film performance by future Oscar nominee RUBY DEE (her three credited film appearances prior to 1950s The Jackie Robinson Story have not surfaced to date). EASY TO GET is interesting for several reasons. 1) It features a mostly all-black cast and has Hollywood-level production values. 2) Unconventional for its time, it depicts black black bravery in wartime and sexual relations in a very candid manner (including an on-screen kiss) and 3) Many of the actors in the film are notable for appearing in mainstream Hollywood films.
