Over the past century, few entertainers have achieved the legendary status of William H. Cosby Jr. His successes span five decades and virtually all media;, remarkable accomplishments for a kid who emerged from humble beginnings in a Philly project. In the 1960s, his stand-up act was a coast-to-coast sensation, spawning a string of hilarious, best-selling comedy albums, which went on to win eight Gold Records, five Platinum records and five Grammy Awards. His role on TV's I Spy made him the first African-American to co-star in a dramatic series, breaking television's racial barrier and winning three Emmy Awards. In the 1980s, he again rocked the television world with The Cosby Show, a gentle, whimsical and hugely successful series that single-handedly revived the family sitcom (and rescued NBC). With hit movies like Uptown Saturday Night and best-selling books like Fatherhood; Bill Cosby is quite simply a national treasure with the unique ability to touch people's hearts.

Nov 21, 2007 - rde on Bill Cosby
Bill Cosby - Himself!

If you haven't heard this stand up comedy concert, you owe it to yourself to hear it! If you have ever told anyone "I am going to go out tonight and get drunk because I deserve it..." then you certainly need to hear Bill's take on the idea. This is nothing like Fat Albert or The Cosby Show. It is totally adult oriented and sheds a broader light into what is probably the real Bill Cosby and not some script written by a group of writers for the Nielson ratings. A funny bit to say the least.
