DVD
The video was given as a gift. He loves the video and watches endlessly laughing throughout the whole video. I did not recieve half the things I ordered, and I almost did not recieve the video. The website was difficult to navigate and many of the links did not take you where you needed to go.

Trust the REVIEWS LOL thinking about it!! HILARIOUS
PRYOR...one of a kind,my mom had this but after watching it,I kept it for myself,I went out and bought my own dvd,I lended it out,I never got it back,don't lend it out,cause once it's watched you won't get it back...my favorite stand up EVER,the GREATEST who inspired Eddie Murphy and many others!

The Mecca of Stand-up comedy
It does not get any better than this, Pryor is in his element and his story telling is as raucous as ever. The problem is the generation of standups who learned from him, but started to cuss just for the sake of it.
Profanities when used by Pryor becomes almost silly and funny in its very connotation, unlike the ppl who try to replicate it. There can only be one true comedy king ( yes, as opposed to the false one) and that is King Richard Pryor, Rest-in-Peace, my friend.
Great Record and the ultimate tonic for depressed people world over.
--Five stars no less. Primo stuff.--

Richard Pryor at his best
Excellent DVD of Pryor in a live concert back in the late seventies, he is extremely funny at his peak. Enough said.

Maybe the funnest thing EVER!
When asked for an example of something to "hot" to be included in the National Recording Registry, Gene DeAnna, the director of the recorded sound division at the Library of Congress, immediately replied: "The example that comes to mind, to me, is a Richard Pryor record." He continued, "I think out of context, the language and often edgy, racial overtones of the recording could be put against the library and it could hurt feelings." Given a chance to see "Richard Pryor - Live in Concert", you'll be laughing to hard to find your feelings hurt!

According to Former Kennedy Center President Lawrence J. Wilker, "Richard Pryor was selected as the first recipient of the new Mark Twain Prize because as a stand-up comic, writer, and actor, he struck a chord, and a nerve, with America, forcing it to look at large social questions of race and the more tragicomic aspects of the human condition. Though uncompromising in his wit, Pryor, like Twain, projects a generosity of spirit that unites us. They were both trenchant social critics who spoke the truth, however outrageous." To get an impression of the wide ranging scope of his talent, search out a biography and note the list of performers and writers that he worked for and with - it's truly amazing!

Richard Pryor is possibly the funniest person ever, and this is a masterpiece. His storytelling at it's best, and the improvisational banter with the audience is incredible. A must-have for anyone (everyone!) who enjoys a thought provoking, mind expanding, belly laugh!
