The Devil Made Me Buy This Dress

''The Devil Made Me Buy This Dress'' is the fourth comedy album by American comedian Flip Wilson, and the first record released by Little David Records, a boutique label that Wilson co-founded with his manager Monte Kay. Featuring material written by Wilson, it was his most successful album—his highest charting album, his only Gold record and his only Grammy Award. Wilson introduces here for the first time on a comedy album his character Geraldine Jones, who delivers a retort to form the title of the album.
==Geraldine==
The character Geraldine was first introduced by name on Labor Day, September 1, 1969, in a television special put together by Wilson, his manager Kay, and NBC executives. The show was called ''The Flip Wilson Special'', and its success led to Wilson's variety show called ''The Flip Wilson Show'', first broadcast September 22, 1970.〔 Wilson first performed the specific routine of Geraldine defending her new dress on ''The Ed Sullivan Show'' on January 11, 1970.〔 In the routine, Wilson takes on the persona of a preacher's wife. The wife (Geraldine) explains to her angry husband why she has an expensive new dress, telling him that "the devil made me buy this dress."〔 She describes how the devil followed her on the street, flattered her with praise, showed her the dress in a shop window, pressed her into the shop, and then forced her to sign the preacher's name to a check. The preacher is doubtful; he says that she is too quick to blame the devil, for instance the time she rammed the car into the side of the church. She counters by saying that, at the time of the car accident, she was trying to wrest control of the steering wheel away from the devil, and she was also trying to kick the devil, which prevented her from using the brake pedal.〔
