I Started Out As a Child

I bought this album when I was in eighth grade, and 12 years later, even though I definitely gravitate towards bluer comedy, this is still a record I frequently dust off and give a spin. Tons of memorable material. Ralph Jameson is a hilariously random "sketchy" sort of bit with no real context or explanation on the album, and shows a style of comedy that I haven't seen since. And Pet Rhinoceros is a bit that almost every comedian has done some variation of (the old do-something-crazy-to-get-a-reaction-out-of-people bit). This is one of the greatest american comedy albums and belongs in every stand-up lovers collection.

Bill Cosby is one of the most genius comediens of all time !!! I remember listening to this on my fathers record player and now own the entire library. The beautiful thing about his comedy is i can listento it with my kids and even though it was made in 1964 they still laugh .

I just found this CD the other day. Being a big fan of Bill i decided to pick it up. This is one of Bill's funniest albums and is what helped him become the star he is today. If you like to laugh you need to pick this up.
