Album Notes
While Steven Wright became an icon of 1980s comedy for his ultra-dryly-delivered, absurd one-liners, for almost three decades of standup, 1985's I HAVE A PONY was the only full-length recording of his unique comic stylings. However, I HAVE A PONY is a jam-packed sample of one of irony's greatest advocates since Steve Martin's heyday. From wry observations like "I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of widths" to bizarre linguistical twists like "do you live around here often," Wright's routines rarely build past one layer, but the scattershot effect he unleashes is like few others in the comedy game.

    Steven Wright's album, I Have a Pony (2005), proves that a comedian can be funny, at times Hilarious, without using foul language. His mind-bending, random, topical humor is filled with flips that will occasionally require the listener to think about what he is saying.

    Wright has been doing this style of stand-up for a long time. He has remained true to his dead-pan stage personna and delivery. His ability to string together a series of seemingly unrelated jokes, creating a cohesive routine, makes him one of the few GREAT, contemporary one-line comedians touring today.

    Steven Wright may be an aquired taste, for some. Thoughtful listeners will enjoy the way he dissects the "ordinary" elements of life, challenging perceptions, to create delightfully funny jokes. Those who prefer an edgy, story-telling comedic style may wish to search elsewhere for their laughs.
