Also, Redd Foxx’s first records were full of innuendos and double entendres, on the Dootone label, who also came out with Earth Angels by the Penguins as well as the Drifters early songs.

I knew this one would be there - Big Ten Inch Record, Bull Moose Jackson (1952)
I remember the Aerosmith classic and was shocked it was a remake.

I don't recall knowing about the actual records but I do recall hearing about such things.
Not exactly racy but Transfusion by Nervous Norvus was banned.
I recall a movie that was refused by many theaters because it showed skin below the waistline.
The French Line. Jane Russell

“She Got the Goldmine” wasn’t racy.

What’d I say part 2, Ray Charles should be on that list. Part 1 was mild, part 2 was something else.

Sounds like the kind of songs you would have to go in and ask the salesperson for as they were kept under the counter.
To: Impala64ssa
Awesome songs.
Ahem....of course, they should be discretely played.

I think that 60 Minute Man is/was one of the biggest soul music hits of all time. Even with less radio airplay than these record labels and artists would have wanted, the music was still popular.

Don't forget
Shaving Cream, recorded by Benny Bell just after WWII.

Saw Jim Stafford live in Branson, MO back the in 90’s. He was hilarious.
