5.0 out of 5 stars Laugh? I nearly crashed the car ..., September 21, 2000
This review is from: Button Down Concert: Live Recording Of The Best Of Bob (Audio CD)
Outstanding! No other word for it. As a long time fan of Bob, I introduced this CD to my kids (13 and 10) and it's now a firm favourite on long journeys. The live recording is excellent quality, you get a wonderful sense of a live event and Bob is in TOP form. Lots of sketches, so excellent value for money. Best comedy CD I've ever heard!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Hilarious!, September 13, 2000

This review is from: Button Down Concert: Live Recording Of The Best Of Bob (Audio CD)
Bob Newhart is amazing! Even 30+ years later, his comedy is still fresh and funny (and completely without any objectionable matter -- you can let your kids and your 90-year-old grandmother listen to this album). All his funniest routines are included on this CD (my particular favorite is "Introducing Tobacco"). Priceless stuff! You'll laugh yourself silly!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars An up to date version of the Best Of Bob!!!, July 30, 2002

"toytwains" (St. Augustine, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Button Down Concert: Live Recording Of The Best Of Bob (Audio CD)
I first heard about this CD when Bob Newhart was on the Tonight Show promoting it, and I ran to my local record store to get it. What makes this album a little different than his early classic ones, is the editing, because they left in all the timing pauses that are crucial to his unique delivery. He himself even said that his old albums were edited to speed up the routines, making him sound like he was talking much faster than he was actually able to. Just an interesting bit of trivia I thought I'd share with all of you! Buy this CD! You won't regret it, it is something that all ages can enjoy and there's nothing dirty on it that would offend anyone! (I believe this is also available on video, but it might have to be special ordered.) But like many other reviewers have mentioned, it is great for in the car, as is all his materials on CD! And Mr. Newhart, if you happen to read this, thanks for buttoning down your mind with us!
