4.0 out of 5 stars Richard Jeni is a very funny man, February 3, 2006

Richard Jeni is one of the funniest comedians you will ever hear and this CD has a nice collection of his bits. He can be quite crude but also very smart. His mastery of words is on par with George Carlin. Favorite parts on this CD would be "Women Smoke Cigars?", "Fred Robster", "Women: They Came from a Drying Planet" and "Cooking with Bill".

5.0 out of 5 stars Jeni's humor remains fresh, relevant and brilliant., October 14, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Greatest Bits (Audio CD)

Richard Jeni's Greatest Hits is a marvelous final act to the first stage of Jeni's stand-up life. Here, he brings 10 years worth of his best material to bear, with pointed observations about men, women and life in general. Make sure you skip right to "Fred Robster", "Colonel Saunders", "Bill the Belching Gourmet" along with "Moisture". But, as always with Jeni, you'll have your own favorites you'll want to hear over and over. Jeni has a genius for observing life, then helping us look at it with a New Yorker's slant and flair. Sure, if you've seen Jeni you've heard these bits before. Yet, listening to them again doesn't dull them---they instead remain fresh, vital and leave you convulsed with laughter every time. This seems like a fitting place for Jeni to retire these bits from his act, and move onto more fertile ground. And "Greatest Hits" will be a CD you'll cherish, along with others that have become classics over the years. Bill Cosby's "Wonderfulness" and "To Russell My Brother Whom I Slept With," or George Carlin's "AM/FM" and "Class Clown" immediately come to mind. "Greatest Hits" is the material that's given Jeni such a loyal following, and is why he is established as one of America's truly brilliant stand-up comedy minds.
