Review of Richard Pryor: Here and Now (1983) by Jarett B — 21 Jul 2011

Pryor plays with his audience like no other. When he tells the dude making fun of his mother that he'll "slap his dick off his face" well, it's priceless.

It's also an autobiography, as it's his first show after an overdose. So, it's serious at times-like Bruce-but then just unreal, like when he talks about being drunk in New Orleans and he starts yelling at the set of Orleans behind him. I found myself asking, where's security? The man gets a lot of gifts from the audience...
