I hope this doesn't violate any rules on here.... I'm crowd funding an official project for fans of old soul/RnB/blues tracks by Rudy Ray Moore - many know of him as a comedian and his film character DOLEMITE. If there's anyone here that is interested and/or can help get the word out it would be greatly appreciated.
Here is all the details.
THE RUDY RAY MOORE
SINGLES SERIES CROWDFUNDING EFFORT IS LIVE!
Many fans of Rudy Ray Moore were unaware he was a singer
until the release of the Hully Gully
Fever collection in 2000. This new collection expands greatly on this
incredibly prolific period of Moore's career. Becoming a successful R&B / R
n' R / Blues singer was Moore's true professional passion and he worked
tirelessly through the 1950's and 1960's in hopes of accomplishing his dream.
Ultimately, it was comedy that propelled Moore to success leaving his early
vocal work largely forgotten. This limited and exclusive collection, designed
for the truest of Moore's fans and put together by Moore's official biographer,
Mark Jason Murray, pays great tribute to this period.

THE PROJECT
COORDINATOR!
Mark Jason Murray has spent over 25 years archiving and
researching the life and career of Rudy Ray Moore. Many fans are likely
familiar with his work relating to Moore through DVD/CD liner notes,
documentary works (UNSUNG HOLLYWOOD: RUDY RAY MOORE, I DOLEMITE, etc.), DVD commentaries
and even the creation of the official Rudy Ray Moore bobblehead figure. Murray's
officially authorized biography on Moore, entitled Thank You For Letting Me Be Myself, is scheduled for release in
2018.
