Clower,Jerry Icon CD

The pride of Yazoo City, Mississippi, by way of Liberty, was a down-home, folksy storyteller who parlayed his talent as a fertilizer salesman into a career in show business. By all accounts, it was his "accounts" that led him in that direction. Clower had a way with spinning a sales pitch into yarns and tall tales about life in the south, by way of the fictitious Ledbetter family and the humorous stories he created - knowing well that his Southern audiences could definitely relate to a character or two. Comedy presents itself in a variety of styles and the late Jerry Clower's style was wholesome, nuanced primarily for the South - with a semi-religious undertone - and all told in good taste.
