Just because the lyrics weren't "filthy", doesn't mean this comedic genius wasn't funny. I was rolling on the floor with laughter. Many of Redd's jokes make you think. None of his jokes were vulgar, which is what most comics today use. This is an excellent comedic CD.

Many of the best comedians of the last few decades owe a debt to Redd Foxx. This is a great collection of his work.

Nothing against Redd Foxx, but this CD was definitely a letdown. The 'explicit lyrics' were no doubt explicit in 1950 but I was shocked at how tame the material was after hearing numerous times what a raunchy mouth Redd Foxx had. Maybe that was left off of this CD, I don't know. I might have chuckled at 5 tracks or so, but that was it. Also, many of the tracks were 5 seconds or less, just a quick one liner. I won't say it was a total waste of money, just probably not what you are expecting. Not what I was expecting anyway...
