A marvelous narration brings the comedian, activist, vegetarian, and civil rights leader Dick Gregory vividly to life. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss how Joe Morton’s narration is a marvel of emulation, impersonation, and soulful rejuvenation of Gregory. Along with having mastered Gregory’s unique style, he captures his humility, candor, and sense of fun. Famous at an early age, Gregory was a bestselling author, a nightclub comic, and a progressive who went on hunger strikes to protest a number of issues, including the Vietnam War. This splendid collection merits a wide audience.
