Here from 1922 is a rare and unusual clan Record. Although the record credits this record to Billy Frisch, I would suspect that the name is probably an Alias. The singer sound quite a bit like Arthur Fields, but that is only a guess. The Composers are in initials, showing that they wish to remain anonymous as well. This Record is posted for Historical Purposes only,and not in any way to make any kind of political statement.
"Ku-Ku", The Klucking of the Ku Klux Klan
by ER, BG, BG
Published: 1922
Shh! Shh! what an awful sight
Shh! Shh! See those forms in white
there's a hundred thousand men
and cows and donkeys in the band,
Shh! Shh! can't you hear that sound
Shh! Shh! going all around,
tell me don't you fear it can't you hear it
traveling thru' the land;
[chorus]
Ku-Ku, Ku-Ku, that's the kluck kluck klucking
of the Ku Klux Klan,
Ku-Ku, Ku-ku, that's the gobble, gobble, gobble,
of the Goblin Man,
they call 'round in their nighties
and if you're not your best,
they'll dress you like a chicken
put feathers on your chest*,
Ku-Ku, Ku-Ku, they will get you if they can,
So if your land-lord tries to profiteer,
tell the Klan and he will surely hear
Ku, Ku Ku, that's the klucking of the Ku Klux Klan
So don't drink wine and don't drink homemade beer
if you do you're surely goin' to hear
Ku, Ku Ku, that's the klucking of the Ku Klux Klan
So if you really want to disappear
beat your wife and you will surely hear
Ku, Ku Ku, that's the klucking of the Ku Klux Klan
*a reference to the old torture method called "tar and feathering"

@Globe2219 If you listen carefully, there are actually two voices on this record. Just a guess, but I would say Frisch who is listed as the Composer, is probably at the Piano but also singing sporadically at times through the record as he answers the other singer's "KuKu's", but then it could be Frisch who actually sings the last Verse prior to the end of the record. You are correct, it is extremely difficult to pin this artist down to anyone, although at times it does sound like Arthur Fields.

There are points where it sounds like Fields, and points where it doesn't. I've got over 1600 recordings of Arthur Fields, but I'm not convinced either way on this one.

I'm with you. Those aspects that sound like him sound so much like him that I'm wondering if he didn't "shade" his voice enough to disguise it?

A previous owner wasn't that gentle to the paper label though - but a very interesting record nonetheless.

@bealdeal I am not really sure. I guess you could go on ebay and look up completed auctions for Clan related records. That would give you a pretty good idea what it might be worth today. Victrolaman

I guess it is how you interpret the words, see the lyrics by clicking on more info in the upper right. References to clucking like a chicken, dressing up in their nighties, taring and feathering, folks dissapearing, and vigilante activities. Like I said, it is all in how you interpret whether activities like that are good or bad.
