Rufus C. Thomas, Jr. (March 26, 1917 – December 15, 2001)was an American rhythm-and-blues, funk, soul and blues singer, songwriter, dancer, DJ and comic entertainer from Memphis, Tennessee. He recorded for several labels, including Chess Records and Sun Records in the 1950s, before becoming established in the 1960s and 1970s at Stax Records. He is best known for his novelty dance records, including "Walking the Dog" (1963), "Do the Funky Chicken" (1969) and "(Do the) Push and Pull" (1970). According to the Mississippi Blues Commission, "Rufus Thomas embodied the spirit of Memphis music perhaps more than any other artist, and from the early 1940s until his death . . . occupied many important roles in the local scene."
ハリウッドの"PJ's"でのライヴ盤。冒頭の12分のトークが分からないのでつまらないですが（全然分かりません）、曲に入ってからはグイグイ盛り上がっていきます。代表曲"Walking The Dog"や"Do The Funky Chicken"などのライヴ感が素晴らしい。もちろん、お得意の鶏のマネも披露しています。
