Mafia Nightclub | Richard Pryor: Live On The Sunset Strip (1982) | Now Comedy
I want everyone to remember this was before movies like Goodfellas and Casino. He was so authentic with the impressions.
More like Harlem Nights...
I was like that is the Goodfellas screen play !! Richard Pryor is truly of voice of a culture timeless !
Never thought about that. This was before all those movies
So well acted. Top level funny, but you know it's from a truth he experienced directly
@@francus7227 such an under-rated film, he and Eddie Murphy are both brilliant in it.
This is 40 years old and funny as hell. A timeless comedian.
So true. Richard was for real, no holding back. Will never be another.
Search up Rodney dangerfield, now that’s timeless money
Richard was a genius so fucking funny😂😂
Oh shut up! Duhhhhhhh. Don't care what you think 😊
Pryor and Carlin were the best!
“Wait a minute, Rich do the gun again.” 🤣🤣🤣
hey tony STICK-UP AHHHH HA HA HA HA
@@cavalierfan1995 LMAO! 🤣🤣🤣
Lol
😂😂
You Funny Af for pointing that out 😆
"Who is it Carmine ? Tell him I'll call him back .....tell him its a stick up 😂😂😂😂 "
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t get it
Yeah look him up
GOOGLE PRYOR AND CARMINE...you had to be there 😅
The guy wag great !
"Whatsa matter Rich? You don't look so good." 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥
My great Uncle was a made guy. As an Italian American I can attest to his stories.
@@SteveBerryhill Wow 😳 so I bet you have some really wild stories to tell too 🤣
@@ereynacarde-borre6803 As a matter of fact...I do. My grandfather in the 1930's older brother Guido (I swear) was makin' his bones and drove up in a brand new car. He offered to pay my Grandfather (16 at the time) $10 to drive the car across town and park in a certain spot. My trepidatious grandfather inspected the car and then, to Guido's objection, opened the trunk. There was a body wrapped in a carpet. My Grand father refused the offer. It's what kept him out of the mob. My Great Uncle Guido went on to control all the farm labor unions in Central California. True story.
@@SteveBerryhill 😲😲😲 Wow! That is quite a story! It's a good thing he looked in the trunk.
The stripper Richard is talking about‘s real name was Toni Elling (born Rosita Sims). Looking up some pictures of her on Google from back when she was performing and she really was beautiful. She was inducted into the Burlesque Hall Of Fame (I never knew that there was such a place, but I digress.) She passed away at the age of 94 on April 2, 2023.
Wowwwww!! Thank you for sharing!
Italian people probably love this 😅
internet done right
Sounds like you know your strippers
Oh damn. I gotta research this
“We’re crime and crime don’t pay”😂
That's because they funded the restaurant owner's business.
@@yankee2666u mean they pay protectional fees?^^
My favorite line in this whole bit…right next to “wait till it melts asshole” hahaha
In my opinion Richard Pryor was the funniest man ever in comedy!❤❤❤
My friend little G aka Gary Giamarrco always says his name is crime & he don’t pay! Hilarious
"Come Here You Fucking Kid" 🤣🤣🤣
He's not only hilarious but when you watch him, you feel happy for him that he found such big success... he earned it!
Yep
The way he's telling the story is just perfect.
It's true.
I am certain any surviving mobster absolutely adores this joke about them.
I watched this whole show on VHS video back in 85 when I was in hospital, I was laughing so much everything hurt, by the end I didn't know if I was laughing at him or because of the pain I was in with my injury 😂😂😂, he was a comedy genius and way ahead of his time
How great is comedy. It’s the greatest gift ever made being laughter.
Laughter is good medicine.
😂😂😂
Red Foxx, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy Real Original KINGS of Comedy. 👑 👑 👑
Mike Epps...I'm just reaching. I noticed you said "Original Kings.."😂
Yes...and Fluffy!!!! 😂😂😂😂 (Gabriel Iglesias)
And they were all in Harlem Nights, one of the most underrated movies ever. Plus Arsenio Hall who stole the best scene in the movie.
Sanford
@@HikoSeijuroXIII This is the real Kings of Comedy movie to me!
The original “KING” of comedy
THEE KING OF COMEDY!
@@choppwhite4189 Hands down
🙌 ABSOLUTELY!! 🙌 The Best!
100%
That’s why he’s the goat. He started it all. He paved the way for everyone that came after him
Yup, greatest comedian ever.
He was influenced by Jackie Gleason...the goat.
@markasread4349 he most definitely did. To the level he took it. Being in movies. How big he was as a standup comedian. He started it all
Rodney Dangerfield was better@markasread4349
None better....
When you think martial arts you think bruce lee, when you think basketball, think michael Jordan, when you think comedy you think richard pryor
Absolutely and just like the afore mentioned two, there will never be another.
Pryor and Kinison
Carlin
''Rich do the gun again'' i love that line
"He's gotta pair of gugoozi's on him, ahh!"
I lost it when he said that!!! It's actually gullions (but people pronounce it wrong all the time. "Gugoozis" or "Cool-Yahns" but it is "Ghoul-yoons"
So if you ever want to sound authentic, now you know :D
@@gulgul2006and I thought he was using an italian term!
@@humanforotherhumanst4619 Yeah it is actually Italian but it's proper language and means testicles. Not balls. English We say balls which to a foreigner would mean like the object (basket ball baseball etc) so it isn't some colloquial where it means something else in their language but used to described testicles. It is actually the word for it.
"you carry we bury" 😂😂
As an Italian American , I am not offended. Funny as hell.
So you’re not in the mafia but work for them ?
Why the hell would you be offended
Tell me you're young without telling me you're young.
Why did you feel the need to point out you weren't offended?
Do you think anyone else cares?
@@Rjensen2I say the same thing when black women bitch about other races wearing braids 😂😂
"you on your way home? you want us to give you a ride?" 🤣🤣🤣
He was a true genius of comedy. Cannot get enough of him.
"Fry it up, they like fried food." 😂😂
A fuckin kid can you believe that shit ahhhahaha
😂
lol, blacks do love fried food!
... and put a little scongini on it. LOL!
Get him a little sanini farolla
Comedy, art, history, culture, wit, delivery, timing, social study..you name it. To say he"s the goat it"s just not enough. In a 100 years this bit will still b funny as hell. What a legend. A real 1.
I was blessed to have seen Richard Pryor live. All I can say is that there are not enough superlatives to describe just how good he was. Nuff said.
You were truly blessed.Pryor was the KING
@@annrodriguez2891 Thank you very much. Richard Pryor was the best. Not one comic, apart from Geg Giraldo and Bill Hicks, has come even close to the master. Imagine a packed out club and the MC announces those three as your acts!!!
The Marx brothers were better.
@@danielbrown3461 I grew up on the Marx Brothers. My grandfather was blessed to have been friends with Harpo and Groucho. No one comes close to them in terms of comedy on the big screen, however, Richard Pryor was the king of stand up. He took it to a level that only Dave Chappelle, Billy'Boy'Burr and maybe Jeselnik are approaching.
"Marry me and I'll never look at another horse."
Not Nuff said...The Marx Brothers paved his way and had a massive inpact on him. He himself said so. Plus he said himself the 3 Stooges were better.
So many artists today, stood on the shoulders of this GIANT. I love his work. May he be RIP. Respect.
Richard Pryor is the very first selection for my Comedy Mount Rushmore; the man was without peer to my mind.
Gotta have Groucho Marx on the Mt. Rushmore of comedy too.
GOAT 🐐 of stand-up
The Marx Brothers were better. They paved the way for Pryor. And also Jackie Gleason.
💯💯💯
A true comedy legend. RIP Richard Pryor!!
"And the f***ing ice pick BREAKS! Haaaaaaaaaahaaaahaaaa"
Oh man makes me cry of laughing everytime 😂
As a kid, I used to watch this with my stepdad. 🤣🤣🤣
"they appeal to your intellect. Then you realize it's hard to walk without knees". genius. pure and simple.
A lot of people nowadays won’t get that this is one of the greatest bits of all times. Another comedian could makeup a more outrageous story but Pryor lived it. Even great comedians write stuff down but you can tell that he’s so good he was telling the story in the moment! The timing and the energy doesn’t lie. Pryor is the greatest
Exactly, very talented
I love this comedy skit.
Richard Pryor was a great comedian and story teller.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
There are a lot of guys that did standup over the years; some of them were incredibly talented. Richard was in the conversation with ANYBODY.
Anybody and everyone.
“What’s the matter Rich you don’t look so good, ahh ahh ahh” 😂😂😂
One of THE best comedians of all time.
Because he was speaking from Experience, you can't and shouldn't be offended. And you gotta admit that was the best impression of an Ol Skool Mobster!
“What’s the matter Rich you don’t look so good” 😂
"Crime don't pay." The pun in this line is what got me. The man was a genius.
Wow - I always knew he was a genius, but his range is breathtaking. He was well ahead of his time.
He and George Carlin were the top two comedians of their generation.
@@MichaelMeade-d7b I agree 💯. They're two of the greatest comedians with Richard coming out on top and George usually comes in at 2nd place.
And just to think when Richard first hit the scene many critics were comparing him to Bill Cosby in which he said himself he was inspired by him. Once Richard started being himself and cussing in his standups, that's when he took off and never went back.
I will never forget Richard Pryor. He was a comic genius and lovable no matter what he said!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
My hero. I started doing stand-up because of Mr. Pryor. RIP!
He was the best. I saw him live in San Francisco in about 1973.
Lucky you, comedy is nowhere near this good in 2024
this bit he did is better and truer to life than any gangster picture you'd care to name. hell, should've been a movie!
Have several Italian friends, a couple were for real, they thought this skit was HYSTERICAL, This guy was a GENIUS!
RIP, Richard Pryor. Gone, but never forgotten!
I saw this on VHS thirty years ago and watched clips of this same joke for decades and it's still funny every time.
My late uncles on my momma's side of the family cracked up over this Richard Pryor skit. I miss them all.
Thanks for sharing!
Best standup comedian of all time right there. A legend. RIP Rich.
How can a joke be so funny and genuinely scary at the same time?
I still miss good comedians and actors like Richard. RIP brother.
I will never tire of watching this clip.
His father was a real bad ass and all that is real . Richard overcame a lot to be a comedy legend ! Great talent .
“Hey Jeff, I remember when I showed you how to drive.” Richard Pryor could make anything funny.
Jeff: 😐
Pryor is the best . Nobody can touch him.😂
Could you imagine how hard the real mafia laughed at this material....lol The laugh is spot on . .This was when we could still laugh at each other....lol
😂 Notice he got everybody paid though! Love it!
I used to sneek in my moms record stash& listen to this as a youth in 80's!!
Just an incredible natural gift .. So hilarious and so unique. RIP
Seen Richard Pryor in a Italian Nite Club in Steubenville Ohio just down the river from the mafia night club.
I saw this in the movie theater, before it was on HBO.
Long, long ago.
Never forgot this routine.
😂🤣😂🤣 I absolutely loved Richard Pryor! Genius! 😂🤣😂
Richard Pryor was. BRILLIANT. Funny as heck and didn’t have to rely on crassness and four-letter words throughout his jokes! Today’s comedians could learn a lot from him!!
He definitely has range. A lot of his material was considered very edgy at the time but the guy also was on Sesame Street! G.O.A.T.
"Doing my best black shit, you know."
Hahaha I died and right before the really good stuff started happening
If you just listen to the audio of his mafia voice. I could picture the guy, and you wouldn't think it's Richard at all. He was just that good. :)
I love Pryor. I saw all his movies and had records of his standup. True genius.
”You know icepick’s my thing” That got dark real quick.
I'm Sicilian. My father was actually a gangster who worked for crime family before meeting my mom and having me. Richard Pryor has the best impression ever.
This is the absolute mastery of the craft.
"Crime doesn't pay"- BRILLIANT!. Much missed, damned funny cat.
The original King of Comedy! RIP Richard ❤❤❤
Just pure genius. Love u rich #RIPBROTHER
He nailed it. the with the mafia story. Lol.
...There will be ONLY one Richard Pryor in this existence!!!...🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!!!!
GENIUS !!! RIP Richard !!! Thanks for ALL the laughs ....
True master class of a performance 💯
Nothing better than watching a legend from my younger days! Richard Pryor is legendary
Pryor was in a league of his own among comedians
Richard was an iconic comedic artistic genius! He was so funny that he had the Godfather laughing! 😂
R.I.P. Richard Pryor.. 🙏🕊💐🕊🙏
His affection for the Mafia guys and Satin Doll is so funny.
i have no doubt Richard went through all that, this all before goodfellas and casino and everything and he's on point af, lmao
“Doing my best black shit”😂😂
Such a comedic genius.
I had this on cassette and used to listen to it with my friends all the time. We would be laughing til we cried, especially this part!
As an Italian, I appreciate the stereo types , my favorite Pryor skit 😂
Richard Pryor is the GOAT of standup comedy. Barr none. I miss this guy..❤
Godspeed RP 🙏
I can't stop watching this clip. What a legend
When I was in my teens I used to interact with Mafiosos. The one golden rule was to never let them leave you angry. Even if it was inconsequential or something not related to you -- always make sure they associated your face with something happy. Give them a free sandwich, a coke, whatever -- just make sure they never left upset while simultaneously looking at you. A lot of the lower ranking mafiosos seemed to hold "false grudges" so you aways wanted to be the "good guy."
Also, if you put mafiosos in a good mood, they would sometimes shower you with money. For a teenager in the 90s, a hundred bucks meant the world -- but to them it was just lunch money.
He replayed this scene in "Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life is Calling"
💗❤️💗👏🏾🤗
"Me, Johnny Salami..." 😂
True Legend of Comedy... loved him.
This is just mastery at its best. Richard literally mastered a stage. Miss the guy.
Richard Pryor was one of the most intelligent performers to ever grace the stage. Funny? Absolutely. Smart? You bet!
The King! Period
I love this bit!!! I can watch this bit 1000 times and never get sick of it.
His Italian gangster impression is awesome
Pryor is the mohammed ali of stand up comedy, no matter how good you are, how much you achieve ,never make it to his level, just a league of his own, what a legend
A hundred years from now this still gonna be funny. I only wonder how people will watch it then.
A hundred years from now I doubt there will be any humans left to watch anything
hopefully on the big screen at times square, or in a stadium
I sure hope you're right @@holmes1956O
Stir Crazy is one of my all time favorites- he shines in that movie - boundless talent!
His imitation of a good guy getting stuck up is so spot on
