Wonderfulness

Amazon.com
These days, Bill Cosby is such an established showbiz presence that it's easy to forget what a deeply influential figure he was in the '60s, when he released a wildly successful series of standup comedy LPs. At the time, an amiable, apolitical African-American comedian sharing warmheartedly-barbed observations on childhood, parenting, and other rites of passage was a gently revolutionary act. Cosby's effortless ability to address universal experiences transcended boundaries of race and economic class, uniting diverse audiences during one of the most divisive periods in American history. Wonderfulness, originally released in 1966, is Cosby at his best, with such memorable bits as "Tonsils," "The Playground," and the classic childhood reminiscence "Chicken Heart." --Scott Schinder

Customer Reviews:

Wonderfulness is one of Cosby's Best Collection of Stories.......2007-05-31

This was one of my favorite albums as a child. It is great that it is now available today on compact disc. I still love the Chicken Heart and Tonsils. Bill Cosby is one of the greatest story tellers.

Cosby is Wonderful in Wonderfulness.......2007-03-30

My very 1st Stand Up Comedy show I ever listened to. I got it on Cassette on clearence at a Gas Station by request of my grandmother. We popped it in the radio. From Tonsils to Go-Karts to Chicken Heart. Sadly my cassette died after so many uses. 3 of his best routines are on this CD. I now have every Bill Cosby CD,and some of his rare cassettes,and his Himself DVD and 49 VHS. But it all started RIGHT HERE. Buy it NOW!

Funny!.......2007-02-22

It can be hard to remember when comedians could be funny without rude sexual humor or foul language. Not that that style of comedy isn't funny--it can be. Bill Cosby, however, is able to take regular types of events and relate them in a very humorous way. I can remember this album from junior high school. It made me laugh then and it still does today.

Bill Cosby is Wonderful.......2007-01-10

Bill Cosby makes you remember the goofy things that kids do and why they do them. I recommend this very funny comentary on life as a kid.

Great memories.......2006-10-20

They don't make comedy like this any more. No cussing, no innuendo. No quick easy jokes. Maybe Garrison Keillor is the only one even TRYING to!

"The Chicken Heart" is just amazing, classic, perfect Cosby. Cosby's parents go out to dinner and leave him in his crib and tell him it's surrounded by invisible poisonous snakes. All he wants to do is go listen to a scary radio program. Man it's good. "Tonsils" is great too. COUNT BACKWARDS FROM 100...

I wonder how someone today would enjoy this as an adult who never heard it as a kid. It's worth a shot, people! Turn off the tv and enjoy this cd!
