Somewhat neglected due to his short career in stand-up (he went on to star in movies), Godfrey Cambridge attacked racial issues the way pioneer Dick Gregory did, but used more of the manic vocal and facial skills that Bill Cosby pioneered. Godfrey's blend became uniquely his own, and Epic signed him for four albums. Godfrey wrote articles (for Monocle among others), a book, and starred in the cult film "The Watermelon Man" in 1970 among others. He was a great talent.
