Lord Buckley/The Best Of
1968 (Elektra reissue of an out-of-print Vaya recording from 1951)
Born Richard Buckley, this sometime vaudevillian and lumberjack became The Hip Messiah with an act overflowing with erudition, irony-laden comedy and a singular take on the English language. Despite his upper-crust, flip style, Lord B. had some deadly serious things to say about religion, history and our modern world.
