5 out of 5 stars 200 Mph, an insanely funny car story.......2007-01-21

A must listen for sports car fans. The title track is Mr. Cosby's quest for the ultimate in power, has a Shelby Cobra super snake (2 ever in existence) built and describes his experience. He pokes fun at 60's car culture, foriegn cars, mechanics, Steve Mc Queen, and even the racial hypocricy still smoldering from the 60's era. My dad's (swiped) vinyl copy still resides in my prized collection today. The flipside routines are great as well, but this album is about the speed.

4 out of 5 stars Essential for Cosby fans, but dont buy this 1st........2006-03-26

I own a lot of Cosby. This is fine material, but it is nowhere the genius of some of his other work. Before you buy this, buy Wonderfulness or Revenge or To My Brother Russel Whom I slept With or Why is there Air or Himself or Fat Albert. The 200 mph bit is the best on the CD.

5 out of 5 stars A CLASSIC.......2005-12-20

THE 200 MPH CUT IS CLASSIC COMEDY AND STORY TELLING AS ONLY BILL COSBY CAN DO..

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely fabulous........2005-09-21

I listened to this album probably 15 yrs for the first time. It is absolutely timeless and unbelievably funny.

5 out of 5 stars "You're the gas man, find the gas tank!".......2005-06-14

With the bulk of Cosby's classic WB albums available on CD for some time, it's a surprise that this excellent album from 1968, one of the last of Cosby's 60's standup albums released on the WB label, has finally been released.

The non-re-release of this album for many years was due primarily to the politically charged punchline of the title track routine. Cosby, a sports car fanatic, relays the story of a specially built 427 twin Paxton Cobra, which, when simply idling, scares the crap out of Coz. Looking for a car that was "faster than anything Steve McQueen owns", a dishevelled Cosby tells the carmaker to give the fully paid car to George Wallace (former Governor of Alabama in 1962 - and again in 1970 - and a hard-line segregationalist who tried a run for the presidency in 1968).

With the release of "200 MPH" and "It's True! It's True!" in March 2005, Cosby's legendary 60's WB catalogue is now completely available. "200 MPH" made the P2P circuit for years on sites like Kazaa, which may also have had an effect on the decision to release this album, out of print on vinyl for over 35 years, and only available on cassette until recently.
