Toodlum worked over at the foundry lifting motors! 😅😅 I use to sneak into my dad's vinyl collection when he and my mother went out. I'd play the record on the stereo in the living room, lay on the carpet on the floor and laugh my ass off. I was 12 or 13 them. I'm 60 now. Life is beautiful!
I used to copy the records onto cassette tape and play them at work. We laughed so hard we didn't always get a lot done, but we sure had a blast! Pryor, Carlin, Dangerfield, Cheech and Chong, Cosby, Allen, Fox, Martin, and a few others.
Had not heard his Mud Bone routine in 50 years. It still makes me laugh. I can picture everything as it is happening. No other comedian has ever come close to making me laugh like Richard Pryor has done. There has never been any other stand up comedian who could hold his own against the King of Standup comedy
Happy 80th Birthday Richard Pryor! You are so very very missed. You were the BEST of them all!!! You told such truths in all that comedy! God Bless You!
An absolute comedy classic. I heard this on vinyl back in the 70s and laughed my young ass off! I just listened to it again 40 years later and Im choking!
Hands down and without question, Richard Pryor is my absolute favorite comedian as a kid now adult. What a genius and the greatest of all-time. R.I.P RICHARD! Gone but never forgotten!'😇🙏
I first heard this LP (looooong before the day's of CD's) when it was originally released in the early 80's.....I have NEVER laughed so hard and as long.....ever. And I'm still laughing.....haven't heard this in about 10-15 years and it was just as magical and hysterically funny today. Lord, what a treasure we've lost. There will never be another Richard or Robin ever again. It makes me sad but oh, so greatful to have had them for the time we did. Beings,like those two rarely come along separately, let alone in the same decade. Being able to hear this again is just.........!
No not all of them. Y'know I can remember ride my tricycle to the mailbox for granny and pawpaw when I was 2 years old but I couldn't tell you what I had for breakfast yesterday lol
I used to listen to Richard's greatest hits album after school every day when this came out. I can quote the whole album word for word. Some 40 years later I still laugh my ass off hearing this. Thanks for posting. "old strong ammonia piss too!"
Agree. He is the comedic genius. Was actually voted by one magazine as the greatest comedian of all times. Saw him in Pittsburgh in 1978. Was one of only 3 whites in the audience. Just awesome and hilarious.
Richard Pryor was and is the King of Comedy. Richard was a whole nuther world of Special!! This has always been my favorite piece. He had a magnificent talent for bringing us along on a hilarious adventure!!! I could picture everything he described and it was wild!!! Beyond hilarious!!!
Richard pryor was the funniest man I've ever heard in my life. I remember listening to this on an album when I was a kid laughing my ass off over and over!! There will never be another like him. Thank you Richard!!!!!
I don't know why this with so heavy on my mind today, but I had to look it up on RU-vid and listen to it. I haven't heard this in over 25 years, but I cracked up laughing as though I just heard it for the first time today!😂
Out of the worst situations in life comes the best material for comedy and music! Richard was one of the few that turned his pain into raw laughter! God gifted , he lives on through comedians of today!
This is why he's #1 can still laugh since 1998 when I got into my mom's old records and let friends listen to this masterpiece hit and it became one of our anthems we all could connect ,God bless this soul for all generations to come
One of the funniest things I have EVER heard in my life, and even though I first heard it over forty years ago, it STILL makes me laugh so hard I cry! Oh, gods below, the tarantula and the turkey...
I remember listening to this on a walkman back in the mid 80's. My mother didn't know what I was listening to & kept asking what I was laughing at. I'd listen to the entire tape, rewind and listen again,again and again.
Greatest stand up in the history of comedy... I wish I had a device that could wipe my memory so that I could hear it new over and over... rich was the goat... no question...
Had a friend who worked at Rock A Rola records in the 70's , after hours he'd close shop & we'd smoke opium & lay back listening to albums like this , stoned as fuck laughing our asses off , the 70's were so much more fun than the 60's .
That has to be one of the funniest and most absurd fantasically imaginative country ass stories I have ever heard! LOL! Brilliant! Wow. He was special. LOL!
i loved & remember this skit as a teen. Haven't heard it since - now at 66 i searched "R.P. spider" & now i remember Mudbone . Sitting in the dark here, last of my Siblings & peeps. lmao alone. Thank you.
Literally crying laughing🤣. I'm always waking up earlier than usual at 2, 3, 5 in the morning so instead of struggling to fall back asleep I said fuck it I'll scroll youtube. & I'm glad I did. Between him & Charlie Murphy I can't breathe. They were wonderful gr8 story tellers. Their energy will always remain alive.
Maaaan. Lemme tell ya.. I know comedy. Watched n listened my whole life n this clip... this clip had me CRYIN laughin. My old lady thinks I’m outta my mind. 100% Hilarious. God rest em. Legend
Me too. I got this on an album from my older sisters boyfriend when I was a kid. Im 52 now and still need to hear it every once in a while. He is still the best.
My parents had this album. I remember sneaking to listen to this when I was 8 years old. I remember him talking about them little tiny feet. And that was over 40 years ago.
How anyone can put a thumbs down on this skit obviously has no idea what amazing humour is...such a great stand up skit... like others have said ... the absolute KING of comedy!!
You know this country got people so dam soft now, they're unable to detect any form of realness. Keep a sucker blind and you can do what you want to him. But some of us stay woke my brother.
Ms Rudolph could you please tell me what happened to the tarantula? “That ain’t none of yo GD business! But if you don’t bring me that turkey you’ll see him again!” 😂😂😂 Over thirty years later this man’s standup still kills me!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When I was a kid listening to these records it was only the cussing that made me laugh. When I got older the wisdom of Richard Pryor came out. Like when he says, "Plus. I'm in love with a bitch I can't stand." I've been married to my wife for 30 plus years. I love her. But, sometimes I can't stand her crazy ass!! I'm sure the feeling is mutual on her part. Real talk. That was Richard Pryor.
He was the greatest of all time.ill never forget him or his jokes saw him at circle star in redwood city yrs ago,saw him with my grandmother,I m sure it was very shocking for her but she was laughing as was i in a major way.
I use to sneak and listen to His albums. Going to school and say the same jokes didn't work out for me though. 😁 RIP Richard Pryor you are missed.. 🇵🇷✊🏾
