The Charmer (aka Louis Farrakhan) ~ Don't Touch Me Nylon

[Edited 11/5/11 17:44pm]

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I think it's from 1953.

I don't know the years, but Louis was a nightclub performer before he joined NOI and Elijah Muhammad made him give up his career. Elijah did have Louis record a few NOI oriented songs though.
