Some of you youngsters should remember that practically all "race" records of the 40's n 50's were double entendres .. What do you think Tutti Frutti was ?? an ice cream !!! and was Booggie Woogie realy dancing?? oh and the early rockers got it too.. Buddys girl selling the "Big Issue" on her "Midnight Shift" ? Dont think so !!
@radio62dog I listened to the lyrics very carefully. It's definitely about his girl liking his record that plays the blues. A record that is 10 inches in diameter. I have one myself and I use it all the time.
@mitchcapone Just off the top of my addled brain, I offer the following: 1) Benny Bell - Shaving Cream 2) April Showers - Spike Jones (more diversion than d.e.) 3) Bowser and Blue - Polka Dot Undies *** There are many more. They are mostly "double entendre" songs, like this one. Maybe, some others can think of more good ones.
@shaxmatist2000 Thanks For the reply mate, Haha, They are pretty funny.. Still think Big Ten Inch Takes the Cake... I thinks it's more it's simplicity.. Polka Dot undies, Have to think a fair bit.. Cheers
@mitchcapone Try John Ryan-The Mustache Song, John Ryan-She Tried It Last Night For The First Time, Lucille Bogan-Shave 'em Dry (explicit), Red Peters-How's Your Whole, Family; Benny Bell-Everybody Wants My Fanny, The Assumption Song (similar to Polka Dot Undies), Richard Levinson-Bikini Full of Trouble, those should give you a start.
why is it people think that way back when this was released that things were so conservative. The baby boomers did not invent sex folks. Things like this were common just not "out there" for the world to see.
@VtFarmdude That they weren't "out there" for the world to see, most would agree means that most people didn't "see" it. which by definition means that it wasn't that common. It probably was well known because things were conservative by todays standards and that doesn't have anything to do with sex being "around", it just wasn't generally spoken of in any widespread public way. That's what "conservative" in this instance means.
@mrfester42 I believe you are mistaken. This song is not even very blue, it just has a couple of doble entendre with a very clean clarification (it's a 10" Negro Record!)
What was more conservative were the censors at corporate/advertiser controlled mass media (Hollywood and New York). In Memphis, New Orleans, Kansas City, and Chicago lots of other music was made.
There was mainly even more phoniness for white people then. The sporting life was in full swing.
That's ridiculous. Yeah, people had NO IDEA WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT! People weren't nieve, the censors were just very harsh. Didn't mean people didn't know about dicks, fucks and shits.
It was a lot of fun hearing this in the 50's when it came out. It was even more fun taking that 10 inch the way we did. /thecatholic sisters didnt even flinch. but broke my instrumental of the Man With the Golden Arm right into pieces. What is he talking about. The records were about 10 inches diameter

Wow! so this is were seductiveness of rock and roll comes from. Those old jazz and bluesmen, had such sexualized songs, and what made it cool is they then give to much but they weren't so repressive. They let it all hang out but they did it in a way were it wasn't so obvious. I love it.
@jtmd11 remember back then people were very nieve most people had no idea what he was really talking about. there was also a song called the' gabage man' with the lyrics ' stick out your can here comes the gabage man' what do you think they're singing about?????????
