The Brothers Grimm
“Grimm’s Hip Fairy Tales” As Dug by Don Morrow. Roulette Records. This notion of “updating” the classics (from Shakespeare to Fairy Tales to TV commercials, even the bible) with jive talk and hipster lingo was done numerous times by performers like Lord Buckley, Del Close and DJ Al “Jazzbo” Collins (Who also released a beatnik version of these familiar stories – “Grimm Fairy Tales for Hip Kids”.)
