Loose Him and Let Him Go!

Little Ralph Morton

Outrageous record. Curious enough from the 9 year old preacher angle, but the kid is actually amazing! Lil' Ralph absorbed every cliché Southern Baptist mannerism within 9 years on the planet and was on fire during this taping. Album kicks off a with rapid-fire scripture reading, punctuated by dozens of requisite "GEE--ZUS--uh" exclamations, then the pace quickens and his voice raises and raises until all you hear is a wall of pure white noise and feedback. Insane! Side two is a later recording of Brother Ralph as an adult.

Here's a quick MP3, from around the middle section, I'll have to get you a better one soon, this one doesn't really do him justice. Click here for close-up of cover photo and scroll down for liner notes.
