Dick Gregory var den första svarte stand up-artisten som också lyckades nå en stor vit publik. Detta utan att släta ut sin mycket radikala hållning i rasfrågan.
Här hörs han i två liveinspelningar, en från klubben The Blue Angel i New York och en från The Hungry i i San Francisco.
"...East & West finds Dick Gregory wading a bit further into political matters of the early '60s, including nuclear tension, tension between Israel and Egypt, airplane hijackings, and the Ku Klux Klan. The two sides have a slightly different feel: side one, recorded in New York, starts with a bang and goes full tilt all the way through; the other side has an appropriate San Francisco vibe, starting out casually and building up to the climax..."
