Eddie Murphy : Comedian (1983)
Originally Released 1983\nCD Edition Released July 1995\nRemastered CD Edition Released April 11, 2006\n\nAMG EXPERT REVIEW: By the time Eddie Murphy's Comedian was released, he was already on top of the comedy world, as well as one of Hollywood and television's most important stars. He was already known for taking standup comedy and pushing it to the limit, but on Comedian he takes it one step further and in the process influenced an entire generation of aspiring young comedians to develop standup in a similar fashion. None of the topics Murphy covers here are necessarily groundbreaking, but the manner in which he sets up and executes joke after joke is almost like a machine gun: while one joke has unfolded and the audience is recovering, he's firing off the next round with excellent timing and accuracy. Comedian is a classic and one not easily bested in the comedy album world. -- Rob Theakston\n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nFor those looking, this IS the HBO "Delirious" concert set, May 18, 2005\nReviewer: Eric Skovan (NY USA)\nJust wanted to clarify that for anyone looking for Eddie Murphy's very first HBO special "Delirious", this is it (the audio anyway). I'm not positive its that _exact_ night (him using a fan's camera to take a picture of his crotch isn't on this CD) but it _is_ the Delirious comedy routine. Its all here, gay Ralph Kramden & Ed Norton, gay Mr.T, Ricky "Its just so rediiiculous" Ricardo etc. \n\nThis is Eddie Murphy's first and finest routine. None of his later specials or even any of his films ever surpassed this stand-up set.\n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nexample of 80's standup comedy, May 6, 2003\nReviewer: James N Simpson (Gold Coast, QLD Australia)\nThis album is a classic 80's comedy album. For those of you who have seen Delirious a lot of the main stuff from that video is on this CD. The Mr T material is of course classic as is the Mick Jagger description.\nThis album does have a substantial amount of swearing which may offend some people and you shouldn't buy this album by mistake if you're looking for something for the kiddies because they like Donkee from Shrek or Eddie Murphy in the Nutty Professor. The swearing isn't just mindless though it does fit the comedy.\n\nA lot of the comedy is rather dated but it does reflect the times of the 80's. The Aids stuff especially related to the fear and unknown aspects of the disease at the time. I found it interesting his description of Michael Jackson which reflects what the king of pop was like in the early 80's. There's a fair bit of prejudice jokes against homosexuals, women and other races but if you can overlook that those jokes are pretty funny.\n\nOn this album Eddie tells about why he became a comedian, his childhood and other hilarious stuff. Some of the gags are obviously visual which is a bit stupid. It's not as funny as his earlier self titled one but it's still worth listening to.\n\n\nHalf.com Details \nProducer: Eddie Murphy, Richard Tienken, Robert Wachs \n\nAlbum Notes\nPersonnel: Eddie Murphy.\nRecording information: Constitution Hall, Washington D.C.
