Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Classic from a classic
I bought this dvd about a year or two ago. I couldn't stop laughing. My family couldn't stop laughing when they saw it. It was a classic. Redd Foxx to me was one of the true Kings of Comedy that opened the door for alot of black comics, including the GOAT Mr. Richard Pryor. I miss them both, but this dvd is worth the money. Wish it had more features.
Rating: - On Location with Redd Foxx
One of the late great founding comedian who paved the way for present day comedian. Hilariously funny ole school comedian.
Rating: - Rare live performance
I really liked this DVD. I have always been a fan of Redd Foxx and I was not dissapointed.
Rating:  - Ist Time With FOXX
I have loved watching Redd Foxx as the lovable character "Fred G. Sanford" for years. "G" stands for GREAT as far as I'm concern. This was the first time I saw his live act ever!I was so engaged with
his commentary about life, sex, politics and racial differences. And seeing him RAW and live was...I was just stuck to the screen. I never realized how much of a chain smoker he was. But he was charming, witty and clever. Very entertaing stand-up. He was in Las Vegas when he did his bit and you almost got the feeling that the people were not ready for him. As if they were expecting him to be Fred sanford or something. But what impressed me the most about Redd Foxx was that he never let anything or anyone stop him from being him. He cursed and was vulgar as he could be but in his own loveable charming way that made him irresistable to watch.
I'll just write, if you love anything about Redd Foxx and interested in knowing and seeing another side of him than get this DVD.
Rating:  - Bad Video Transfer
I can't say enough about Redd's stand up. It is very funny and filthy. His speech on censorship is quite amusing, and others are downright hysterical.
Redd Foxx is terrific. Unfortunately, the video transfer on this DVD isn't. It looks like someone used home equipment to dump it on to DVD from an old VHS copy. There are lines across the screen, flashes to black and white, etc. If a decent remaster of this video ever comes out I'll easily give this five stars. But till then, I recommend buying one of Redd Foxx's CDs to hear his comedy.
