The comic genius of Bill Cosby transcends age, race, passing trends, and every other imaginable boundary line. A nine-times Grammy-winner and TV icon, his warm, personal, anecdotal humor radiates universal appeal and has profoundly influenced legions of stand-up artists and comedians who followed in his considerable wake. A prolific recording artist of dozens of spoken word/comic album tours de force, Cosby delivered many groundbreaking early titles that have never before been released on CD. Now Rhino revisits four of these Cosby classics with debut CD presentations to delight comedy fans everywhere!
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Bill Cosby is the man Comment: This is a must have for anyone that loves comedy and especially Bill Cosby. The classic "Noah" skit is one of his all time best routines. Customer Rating: Summary: Noah! Comment: This CD is a collection of chestnuts, funny stories and situations described by Cosby in his prime. Strangely, the pace seems a bit slow, the humor genteel rather than hilarious. Comics have accelerated the pace since these days, it seems. This is best heard in a car, on a long trip, where you have time to live with Cosby's pace, his style. Customer Rating: Summary: the CD was great.......Amazon was crappy Comment: Amazon didn't bother to let me know that the item didn't deliver until I made a inquiry.
What a coincidence they "just" realized the item was returned....yeah it was returned 3 weeks earlier.
Normally I like Amazon, but they dropped the ball on this one. Customer Rating: Summary: Just like old times Comment: One of the happiest memories I have from my childhood, was when the whole family was still together, we just moved into a new house with a brand new Montgomery & Ward 8-track player with a record player on top. In the evenings, we would play our "The Best of Bill Cosby" record and laugh like we were insane. Comedy is much different now... still funny... some VERY funny, but nothing seems as funny as what I remember from that record about playing buck-buck, stories of Old Wierd Harold, etc... After decades of not having that record, I found it online and bought it for my mother. We played it and it and for just a litle while we were all back in the late 70's / early 80's laughing like we were insane, even though we already knew every word before he even said it. Good times. Customer Rating: Summary: Bill Cosby Comment: I loved this as a kid growing up and a lot of people never heard the Noah's ark skit. I think its a scream. I would recamend it to anyone who loves to laugh out loud.
