There's one version of Uncle Tom's Cabin which goes out of its way to be as 
filthy as possible. This is the one with piano accompaniment. There are a 
couple of others (one by "The Odele Sisters" if I'm recalling correctly)
that 
are also pointlessly filthy.

And then there are those Sonora Victor pressings, which nothing will clean
up...
