The Revels' most famous song, "Church Key", became a surf music staple that was covered by countless surf groups. The group had a raunchy saxophone-oriented sound.
2) Since 1971, a seasonal folk music and dance organization has organized performances and recordings as The Revels. They put on regular, seasonal productions in several U.S. cities.

Some free tracks are available through their official website www.revels.org.

The Revels Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bring out The Gimp
[MAYNARD]
The gimp's sleeping
[ZED]
Well, I guess you'll just wake 'em up now, won't you?
The above lyrics are from a scene in Quentin Tarantino's film Pulp Fiction, where two characters, Zed and Maynard, are discussing how to wake up their slave, The Gimp. The conversation itself is violent and disturbing as it involves sexual violence towards The Gimp. The line "Bring out The Gimp" reveals the cruel and power-driven nature of the characters, as they treat The Gimp like a prop rather than a human being with emotions and agency. The use of the word "gimp" is also problematic as it can be seen as a derogatory term for someone with a disability.
The following line, "The gimp's sleeping," shows how The Gimp is powerless and unable to resist the actions of Zed and Maynard. The use of the word "sleeping" is telling, as it implies that The Gimp is unaware of what is happening to him and is possibly drugged. The final line, "Well, I guess you'll just wake 'em up now, won't you?" further emphasizes the power dynamic between the characters and their disregard for The Gimp's well-being.
