Bill Cosby Sings Hooray For The Salvatio

Personnel include: Bill Cosby (vocals). Comedian Bill Cosby's second stab at musical chart success came with this late-1960s collection of covers and songs heavily inspired by contemporary hits like Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze" and Dyke & the Blazers' "Funky Broadway. " With a vintage soul backing courtesy of the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band, Cosby performs creditable (and frequently hilariously revamped) versions of "Road Runner, " "Satisfaction, " and "Reach Out I'll Be There, " working in comedic routines whenever he gets the chance.
