Wow, we haven't done a contest in a long time. I found this great song from 1948 by Julia Lee, "King Size Papa." It was #1 on the R'n'B charts for 9 weeks but white folks never heard it-- until Harry Truman caused a scandal by inviting his homestate gal to perform at the White House. The KKK wasn't that happy about that. Julia may have had a bit of a dirty mind but she unquestionably was Kansas City's first lady of the blues and "King Size Papa" was her biggest hit. Watch the video and correctly identify the most celebrities in it and win yourself a lovely impeach Cheney baseball cap. Send your answer to downwithtyranny@aol.com
