Cosby Circa 1963 As Funny As He Is Now
Bill Cosby's gifted comedically in ways the average sitcom actor dreams of, and has created a level of standup few compete with. He is a master artist, and no mere funnyman. "Bill Cosby Is A Very Funny Fellow... Right!" is one of his best efforts.

Having found "Himself" to be hilarious, I expected more of the same. It is isn't. Instead of stories about his childhood, or his family's adventures at home, he gives us a story about Noah and God talking over how the ark should be built, how his coach would inspire the team, the trouble Superman might run into while changing in the tollbooth, and two cows discussing the dilemma of having hoof and mouth disease. Then there's his story about riding the subways, finding a nut in every car, and the advantages of knowing karate.

As always, Cosby makes the mundane incredibly funny.

The drawback of the CD is there's no video. While Cosby isn't as physical of a comic as some, he still uses the stage, mike and chair as props. A DVD version of this must be great.

I fully recommend "Bill Cosby Is A Very Funny Fellow... Right!" It is Bill Cosby at his best, but he's always at his best.

Laugh until you cry!
Growing up with the vinyl version of this CD, I consider it one of the funniest things to come out of the 60's. Cosby made a name for himself as 'the Noah guy', and never looked back. His dead-on lampoon of Superman, Jocks in commercials, and talking cows would earn him a place in comedy history, even if he had never done anything else. Buy it for yourself, buy it for the eight-year old inside you.

Even in the beginning, Cos was a very funny fellow
This 1963 comedy album represents the very early Bill Cosby, when his comic riffs were about "Superman" and "Greasy Kid Stuff" rather than his family and childhood friends. But you can definitely find the seeds of greatness in his three-part routine on Noah dealing with God: it is not just that Cos does the voices, but that the humor comes out of his dry take on the situation rather than the usual punch line, such as his take in "Hoof and Mouth" on the infamous scene in the movie "Hud." After listening to this album what you come away with is not just how funny he was way back when, but also how much better he got as he honed his craft. Having these old albums released on CD allows you to really appreciate the evolution of one of the great comic talents of our time. It just gets better from here, boys and girls.
