In 1968, his first album entitled “Penitentiary Blues” was released while he was serving a prison sentence, starting-off his net worth.

In 1970, Coe toured with Grand Funk Railroad – his concerts were wild and unpredictable, for example appearing on stage riding a motorcycle, wearing a typical country rhinestone costume and a mask. At that time, he called himself Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy, and this image occurs in some of his albums like “The Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy” (1974) which are only for adults. The songs are about sex and racism which he represents directly and subjectively. The most famous song is “Nigger Fucker”, a song that is full of racist stereotypes.
