  Cosby's FAMILY-FRIENDLY, Story-Telling Stand-Up Comedy.
Review created: 02/17/08(updated 02/17/08)

Bill Cosby's debut album Is A Very Funny Fellow, Right (1963/1995) presents great story-telling, uproariously funny stand-up comedy, for the most part. Some of the material is dated, but all very good. While Cosby's well-known cast of characters and comedic style are still very much in development, his conversational routines and jazz style are all here.

The centerpiece of the album is the "Noah" trilogy, three short conversations between Noah and the Lord which are the impetus of the "Right!" part of the album title. It contains some of the wonderful mike work for which Cosby will become well know. His updated and sarcastic exchange with God is very funny and lends a new perspective to the biblical account in Genesis.

RIGHT is a fine example of story-telling comedy and is family-friendly. It is an album worth owning and is an excellent learning tool for aspiring stand-up comedians.

  Hilarity for any generation.

The thing I appreciate the most about Bill Cosby is that he appeals to so many types of people. He can be hilarious to a person of any age, which is very rare nowadays. Part of the reason is that he's always been a clean comic; no turning the air blue like so many others do. I am in my 20's and I think he is great! I bought this album about a year ago, but I'd heard many of the skits when I was six or so because my mother had them and I thought he was hilarious then! As you get older, you realize that there are some jokes that only someone older would get, but everything is done tastefully.

This album features Bill's very famous Noah and the Lord routine, which I've loved since the first time I heard it. "Superman" is one of those jokes that has a tinge of adult humor to it and it is great! "Hoof and Mouth" is a short, clever little skit that makes it seem that cows aren't as dumb as they look. "Karate" is my personal favorite on this one. It just gets funnier and funnier as it goes on.

Every routine is a classic as is this album, Bill's first. What an awesome way to start! If you like funny jokes that don't require offending the listener, than this is for you. HIGHLY recommended!

I had this album when I as a kid in the 60s. It has some classic, clean and funny "stories". The reason I got it was some friends and my brother were over and he was saying "right" the way Cosby does in "Noah", which is our favorite track. It got us laughing when we started talking about it and wondered if it was out on cd. So- we looked, and ordered it. It still makes us all crack up!

The CD is a copy of the Bill Cosby Is A Very Funny Fellow, Right! LP record that my son used to listen to when he was a child. Now he has children of his own and I wanted to pass long the laughts we shared. I was part of his Christmas present for Dec 2008.

  Bill Cosby, good clean comedy

I remember listening to this album on a record album maybe in the late 60s. On a whim I searched and sure enough it had been copied to a cd. I was elated and waited in anticipation to hear the segments on Noah and the ark again. Bill Cosby is one of the best comedians of all time. I enjoy hearing someone that does not have to use vulgar language to be funny. Just wish it was longer. Well worth the purchase.

It is one of my all time favorite albums. I needed to replace it.
The CD was the best way to replace it. The routine about Noah is
a classic. You should listen to it sometime. Jess
