A Comedy Classic All right, people–I’ll be the first to admit Dice is no comic genius. He had a good two-year run, made a feature film (Ford Fairlane) that tanked, p.o.ed a lot of people in the process, and you know what? He’s still out there doing it!
One of the all-time greatest Comedy Albums Dice, taken selectively, can be brilliant, and he never gets (or got) any better than on this double album. It’s up there with Sam Kinison’s “Have You Seen Me Lately?” and Richard Pryor’s “Is it Something I Said?” for sheer audacity and talent. Later on when dice would pander to the ‘rhyme’ contingent the material became sloppy–this never gets old, it just ages like wine. I can’t recommend any bits in particular, because it’s all good.
“Yeah I got a b___ j__.! It’s a grocery store!” This album is untouchable. The material on this album will never get old. Everything on this is classic, from his delivery to the material, to the setting to the people walking out to the people laughing. Make no mistake, this is a comedy album, but you have to get it, and let yourself go. I didn’t enjoy it too much the first time I heard it.. and then there was the second time. Best comedy album I’ve listened to so far in my life, and I’ve listeded to many. My only wish is that I could have been there myself. This is THE comedy album and THE Dice album. I’ve listened, to Carlin, Pryor, Hicks, Kinison and the younger comedians out there, and I want to see them attempt to put on a show like THIS. Andrew Dice Clay isn’t funny all the time on his albums, but when he’s on, he’s the best in the bizz. Best delivery I’ve ever heard.
