I used to watch Sanford and Son when I was a child. I would be on the floor in tears from laughing so hard. Redd was a maniac. The true King of Comedy!
The Best of Redd Foxx There is no doubt in my mind that this is a collection of some of his funniest routines. Unabridged and unedited. Redd Foxx was the original (Black) King of Comedy. He didn't really have to use profanity for anyone listening to be on the floor in stitches. He had a way of twisting words to make them funny, tell the story, not curse and still make his audience laugh loudly. A lot of people are familiar with Redd from "Sanford & Son". However, give a listen to this and learn about the Redd Foxx that you may have not known- onstage. He was brilliant and his timing was spot on. Listen, learn, enjoy. As the emcee said on his famous " You Gotta Wash Your Ass" album, " Alright, I know you all have been waiting, there is no other way to say it than to say these are the two funniest words in the world today, Mr. Redd Foxx".
That's just it, Orrin: he was so clever that he was able to twist things around so that even when he was being naughty, there was a real wit and charm to it; even an elegance in the way he was able to manipulate the English language (not many people are intelligent enough to be able to do what he did). And to think that, in "Sanford and Son", he was able to do physical comedy, too, it is really impressive. He wasn't just the King of Black Comedy, he was the King of American Comedy, period! Proof positive: I've heard these jokes THOUSANDS of time and I still laugh every time! Long live Foxx! He's the perfect antidote to the (silly) PC age!
Orrin Hutchinson I agree with you, one of the funniest men ever. Also his TV costar Lawanda Page (Aunt Ester) was a an extraordinary entertaining comedian. As a white person these two comedy greats made me laugh and taught me a lot about black American culture.
and it was unsanitized, too. That's the only way to learn about something. You can't wait for someone to give you the cleaned-up version of the way it is.
Redd Foxx definitely is true king of comedy Sanford and Son was the best you big dummies LOL Harlem Nights was another good movie he was in with a lot of good comedians Best of the Best
i use to sneek these when i was young.hide in basement with the afx track and play this stuff.thought one was on a red label colored album but it been a long time ago
+Austin Casey Tee episode when Fred G Sanford, was going for a role as Redd Foxx's double... was just on last week. "Sanford and Son", still airs on TVONE, they have marathons.
When I was in high school the video disc player was the only thing we had to watch anything and red foxx/cheech Chong Rodney Dangerfield and Richard Pryor was the best back then in 1983
I LOVE ❤️ REDD FOXX. His comedy in my opinion is the very best.. His timing was perfect, and his delivery was smooth. I like the comforting piano in the background. It fits really nice. The piano player is very good. But, those electronic drums are very irritating, and they do not fit. The drummer is not very good either. If he was any good, he would have changed the drums and cymbals sounds in the brain to make it fit with the piano, and he would have made the drums and cymbals sound better and more like a real drum kit.. I am a drummer, and i have an awesome ROLAND electronic kit. Electronic drums can sound really cheesy, and those drums sound exactly like that. He should have turned the volume of the whole kit down, to blend in with the piano as far as total volumes go. The drums sound like a kids toy electronic set. With electronics, you can add other percussion instruments and sounds, and if its not over done, he should have added the available percussion instruments and sounds that are in the brain for a variety of drum effects to play during and after REDDS jokes. He should have played a bunch of different rolls on the snare drum. If he wanted to use that particular drum kit, he couldve set the drum pads to play different sounds from several different drum kits, and played those several different drum kits with different jokes, and with what the piano player was playing. Anyway, thank GODD THAT REDD FOXX was the PRO that he was. Im just glad the drums didnt ruin the show. Peace and love TO MR. REDD FOXX . GLEN
Thank you Mr. Redd Fox for sharing your talent with us. Rest easy 💗

this one had me on the floor
Redd was 40 years old when he starred in sanford and son. They made him look older.
Amalis Corcino Not correct. He was age 50 in 1972, and he died at age 69. He looked old because of his extravagant life style.
I still do n still Rollin on floor!! On get TV reg channel yep he's down right hilarious!!
Love the background music and drum accents - old skool.
Redd Foxx was the funniest comedian on the planet
Started listening to this at 6am great way to start the day. Cracking up laughing. One funny old bastard. RIP Redd.

"If you didn't like the show you coulda did like the shepherd and got the flock out".

Red fox is crazy we were so poor that I witnessed a cockroach pull a Switchblade out on a rat and steal his cheese😂😂😂

He's funnier as Fred Sanford, seasons 1 and 2. This stuff isn't funny.

U wrong man
So don't listen to it.
Those are mostly one liners, either you get it or you don't. You are too young I guess to understand. You grew up in a different era.
This is real stand-up comedy, not a TV show; this is live!!!
Greay foxx. U are really redd
