Yellow Back Radio Broke-Down
In this duo from 1974 and 1969, respectively, Reed takes on two great American genresDthe private detective story and the Western. A satiric look at 1960s politics, Louisiana Red follows private eye Papa LaBas as he investigates the murder of the owner of a gumbo joint. Yellow Back is more of a parody of a Western than a true white hat/black hat shoot-'em-up; it is presented in an unusual style with characters such as the outlaw the Loop Garoo Kid and nympho mail-order bride Mustache Sal.Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
