5.0 out of 5 stars Pryor - the GENIUS still lives!!!!!!
What can I say? Here is some older Pryor stuff. If you love him and cannot get enough, get this older one. Comedy genius at its best. Old comedians never really die.

3.0 out of 5 stars Everybody's got to start somewhere...
I won't lie to you--I was a little disappointed with this album, which was released much later than it was actually recorded (which was early in Richard's career, somewhere around the release of his first album; there's some overlap in material). But it's Richard during his cleanest hours, and it's still quite funny.

But it's Richard during his cleanest hours, and it's still quite funny.

In this outing, he relies more on long-winded anecdotes (played fairly straight), more slightly amusing than drop-dead hilarious, but my favourite bit is the 'Silk-on-silk healer', and especially 'Leroy.'

I'd only recommend this album to completists rather than casual fans, but it still fits in nicely as a companion piece to his first three albums and the "Live & Smokin" video. By the time this was recorded, the best Richard Pryor material had yet to arrive.
