I picked that from the mail 2day!

The motherfucka is sssssick, he had me weeping tears out of laughter. I truely miss his presence!

But despite his nasty ass mouth, his shit was metaphoric to the 10th degree(back in the day, politics were scared of him to death and he gave white folks hell lol).

God bless him, I wonder how he's holding up these days.

He has a great box set most of his comedy album releases. He also has a new dvd box set of his very important 1977 short lived televison show that was too hot too handle for tv. Just released yesterday ( Lilly Tomlin, Psul Moioney, etc). Pryor is proof that these religious fanatics got it wrong about some stoic conservative God

Is this still available? Probably, not here in Europe...

Richard!

Oh, I like Richard Pryor very much. Also his crummiest 80s comedies - now those were the days when entertainment was genuinely entertaining.

He sure gave white folks alot of hell(and everybody 4 that matter too) lol but he didn't come across with a "Fuck them crackers" attitude, like I said he was metaphoric and with substance, there was always a reason 4 his jokes AND 4 his nasty mouth too which is why he's very respectable as a comedian.

Check:

Black And White Lifestyles(I relate to that one )
Bicentennial Prayer
Hospital

Well, I've said this before and I'll say this now: I am not American, so the concept of being "white" is alien to me on my day-to-day existence. It obviously matters a lot to Americans themselves, and if they wish to be distance themselves from each other then so be it. But of course, I can understand African-American comedians - the whole dicotomy was made up by the original oppressing class in the first place. And I can relate to them, or Jewish comedians for that matter, far better than to a lot of the "white" branch of 3rd-mall-from-the-sun American comedy.
