Album Description

The comic genius of Bill Cosby transcends age, race, passing trends, and every other imaginable boundary line. A nine-times Grammy-winner and TV icon, his warm, personal, anecdotal humor radiates universal appeal and has profoundly influenced legions of stand-up artists and comedians who followed in his considerable wake. A prolific recording artist of dozens of spoken word/comic album tours de force, Cosby delivered many groundbreaking early titles that have never before been released on CD. Now Rhino revisits four of these Cosby classics with debut CD presentations to delight comedy fans everywhere!

5 out of 5 stars Just like old times.......2007-07-10

One of the happiest memories I have from my childhood, was when the whole family was still together, we just moved into a new house with a brand new Montgomery & Ward 8-track player with a record player on top. In the evenings, we would play our "The Best of Bill Cosby" record and laugh like we were insane. Comedy is much different now... still funny... some VERY funny, but nothing seems as funny as what I remember from that record about playing buck-buck, stories of Old Wierd Harold, etc... After decades of not having that record, I found it online and bought it for my mother. We played it and it and for just a litle while we were all back in the late 70's / early 80's laughing like we were insane, even though we already knew every word before he even said it. Good times.

I loved this as a kid growing up and a lot of people never heard the Noah's ark skit. I think its a scream. I would recamend it to anyone who loves to laugh out loud.

5 out of 5 stars Good, clean fun!.......2007-03-23

I remember listening to this album with my brother when we were little; it made us crack up. Now, after hearing it for the first time in over 20 years, it still cracks me up! I would recommend this cd for anyone looking for a really good laugh!

5 out of 5 stars Bill Cosby.......2007-01-09

I first heard this years ago and never forgot the conversation between Noah and God. This is a must have for Cosby fans!!!

5 out of 5 stars Don't miss this one!.......2007-01-04

I remember hearing this album back when I was young. 30 years later it is still hilarious and my children love it. Good clean humor, which is is short supply these days.

5 out of 5 stars Hikky Burr Part 1.......2002-12-29

Bill Cosby has made some of the most wonderful music I've ever heard. I've only heard Hikky Burr and another song called Litte Old Man and The Cosby Show theme, the latter two aren't on this cd. It's almost imposible to listen to Hikky Burr in the car and not smile. It's sounds like a guy standing behind you at a butcher shop, mumbling about all the stuff he likes there and put to music, "Uhhhh... Ever had any smoldrin? ...mossenrisen? That's good! Mumble mumble... I know!" Those couple songs I've heard are filled with such joy and whimsy, they're wonderful. Hikky Burr is worth ten times the price of the cd, it's a very short song and makes me desperatly want someone to release cd's of all of Cosby's other music, I know records of them were relesed at one point before I was born.
Listening to Fat Albert Gets a Car is like a big hug after eating birthday cake and being tickled.

5 out of 5 stars The Best!.......2002-05-11

I absolutely love Bill Cosby, and to get a good sample of his various works, I highly recommend this CD. You get a taste of his different sides, in addition to toppling over in laughter! I have to say, this is a collection of his most wonderful works. I also recommend Bill Cosby's Wonderfulness. Buy this CD!

4 out of 5 stars Well, most of it is new, but..........2002-02-15

Having been a HUGE Bill Cosby fan since the second I heard the man talk, I know that it has been a struggle to find the perfect compilation of his best work. I saw this one in the store, and bought it anyway (just because I didn't have it) and expected quite a bit, since all of his older released were fantastic. Instead, I got an album full of new stuff (which was still funny), but I could hear the trim work done. If we're going to get a CD, can we at least hear the entire track. For example, the track 'basketball' starts off "Basketball was invented...in - break here, you can hear the digital trimming - Springfield Massachusetts. Dr. Naismith." THat's the start of Basketball. I think, while it is still a good collection of Cosby hilarity, it could use a little work.

3 out of 5 stars Ennis and his duck and his 300 flies....funny.......2006-07-31

This recording has some great one-liners and funny concepts but is lacking as a total performance. His skits do not flow into one another as well as in some of his other performances. If you are a Bill Cosby collector then buy this CD but if you want Bill at his best - then go for "Wonderfulness" or "Himself."

5 out of 5 stars At His Best.......2004-11-22

Bill Cosby at his best! I really like the younger Bill live on stage, if you do to this ones for you!!!

4 out of 5 stars Can I watch Froofie the Dog?.......2004-11-14

I wouldn't say this is Bill Cosby "at his best". It's more like a collection of random routines from the early '70s. Which is not to say it isn't funny. The material here is indeed funny, if not necessarily his "best". "Froofie the Dog" and "Track and Field High Jump" are probably the best routines here. It should also be mentioned that "Grover Henson Feels Forgotten" is not a comedy routine. It is a serious spoken word piece set to music, told from the point of view of a lonely soldier with no family. It was released as a single, but it only reached #70 on the pop charts. Fans of Cos should enjoy this CD.

5 out of 5 stars At His Best~Bill Cosby.......2003-01-30

This was Bill Cosby's best hit yet! I loved "Froofie The Dog" so much, I cried(literally)!It's so funny that if the whole world was listening to it,someone in a galaxy far,far away would hear all of the laghing. I have alot of Bill Cosby albums,but "Bill Cosby At His Best" is the best of all. I also recommend "Bill Cosby Himself" and "To Russell,My Brother,Whom I Slept With". If you want to actually see Bill Cosby, buy the movie "Bill Cosby Himself",which is more extended than the album. The movie is funnier than the album.

4 out of 5 stars HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.......2001-11-10

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... oh in case you didn't notice it this album is funny, I'm 14 and I even loved it, The track and field track is hillarious this cd does not get old.. BUY IT
