New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Coody Gold is not a name usually associated with Urban Music because few folks realize that he propelled BuckTooth's early career. The Amarillo-based music magnate discovered 'Tooth performing at the grand opening of a Texas Panhandle cell phone store called Bling Rings, and well, the rest is history.
Now Gold has turned his attention to staging a tribute to his recently departed amigo Clarence Reid aka BLOWFLY during this year's SX Music Week. Not too many people know that Gold and Reid became fast friends at a Jai Alai match in Miami in the late 70's, following Gold's debriefing and retirement from The Mossad after a particularly bloody incursion in Argentina.
Operating with the stealth to be expected of a former secret agent, Gold has assembled a star-studded lineup of performers from near and far to fete both sides of Reid's fifty year plus career in music. There is hitmaker Reid, architect of The Miami Sound and his alter-ego Blowfly - The Original Nasty Rapper. Both will get their due this night from an array of Miami funk and soul all-stars and numerous guest vocalists.
Gold has also enlisted ample support from Texas boys who aren't afraid to drop an
f-bomb or two. Be there.
