I highly recommend this DVD for any fan of Lewis. Although not very long, it is a great way to see him. It is apparently the only video of him performing and he doesn't disappoint. It makes you want to read some of his books all over again. It also reminds us a lot of what Jeff Foxworthy does now - another great Southern comedian!

Lewis is a master story teller, in the Myron Cohen league. His untimely death cut short what would have been that of a truly great entertainer. His many CD's confirm his potential. This one and only video of his performance is to be treasured. The stories he relates concerning his health are true.ECL

If you are a Southerner or want to be one real bad. Then go see this show as Lewis will make you pine for the land south of the Mason-Dixon line. I just know that Lewis and Catfish are having a blast up there in Heaven!

This video contains some of the best material covered by Lewis Grizzard in his short-but-memorable career!

A life-long Lewis Grizzard fan, I mourn the loss of his talent in 1994. This DVD is typical Lewis: his Newnan, Georgia accent, his collegiate football recollections, as well as the stories about his ex-wives and his pig valve. Though not as edgy today as it seemed back in the '90's, I throughly enjoyed "An Evening with Lewis Grizzard". His comedy, though on-the-edge about many subjects, is nowhere near the shock value of today's comics; vintage and priceless.
