Vincent Prices' voice was as iconic as Morgan Freemans is today. There was no mistaking who it was.
I would James Earl Jones is another great voice.
That's a good comparison
His narration voice was iconic but it wasn't exactly his speaking voice. Morgan Freeman's iconic voice is just his everyday voice.
all great horror actors had a wonderful turn of pharase, voice: Karloff, Lugosi, Lorre, Rathbone, (Price of course), Lee, Cushing, Donald Pleasence, - and they all had a wicked sense of humor. Morgan Freeman's is like stale wonder bread compared to those.
Actors who had a shot at playing a Disney Villain / or other iconic villain : have a shot there as well : Hans Conried, Verna bloom, Eleanor Audley, James Earl Jones (also check out his Tulsa Doom), James Woods, Jeremy Irons, Anthony Hopkins,
they could read the telephone book and it would sell tickets.
I honestly didnt know him, but knew right away he was the guy from Edward Scissor Hands
This guy is a natural comedian. His dry humour and timing are perfect
His dry sense of humor gets me all the time! 😂
@@paradiseawaits821 🍸Yes, as Dry as a Peter O'Toole Martini, that's what I always say....😉
😁
I often feel like I nearly missed the jokes he is so perfectly calm and serious xD RIP the legend
Also an art, wine and food connoisseur. Mr. Price wrote a cookbook.
Here's a little secret: there are a few things Humor and Horror have in common:
Timing
Pacing
Tension and Release
Subversion
Surprise
The two genres appear to be vastly different, but they are as close as Professor Quirrel and Voldemort.
... "Dressed."
I am howling. 😂
Lol 😂😂😂😂
😅
While different meaning today
Perfect timing
like in thriller!
I met Vincent at a airport. He was the most humble man. I got to talk with him for quite some time while he waited for his flight. He loved talking about his past and was hilarious to boot. I asked to shake his hand he said no....may I shake your hand. Ill remember that forever.
What an honor!!! I’m so jealous!
That's a straight-up gentleman right there. He wanted to shake YOUR hand.
A wonderful memory! Thanks for sharing. Price was a truly unique character with many strings to his bow. Friendliness can now be added
And I'm so jealous!
thank you for sharing your time with him! it made me happy and thinking how you must have felt the whole time... just awesome!
Vincent Price, Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee were always a guarantee of a great film in the good old days.
Well said, I used to watch all of them on a late night show called, "Creature Feature" in the 70's hosted by Bob Wilkins.
I still remember the first time I saw The Last Man on Earth. At one point I was like, "Is Vincent Price the only person they could find that could act?" At one point I kept expecting the girl playing his blind daughter to look directly at the camera.
John Carradine also
I think this is the first time I've seen an interview with him, lovely delivery
Growing up, I spent many an afternoon in the theater watching all of their movies. Even now, occasionally, I catch one on TV.
He STILL has fans to this day. ❤
Hard to forget a legond
Very classy man
❤
Thank you for restoring my faith in humanity, by not writing;
'.... till this day
Absolute legend ❤
Vincent Price was the perfect addition to "Thriller".
Michael was smart to put him in the song.
No doubt he got the idea from Alice Cooper. Black Widow did it first.
Michael didn’t plan it, it just sort of happened. Quincy Jones’s then-wife was a very close friend of Vincent Price. Also Rod Temperton wrote Vincent’s raps in the taxi on the way to the studio. It all sort of fell into place.
@@em7dim9 He put Mr. Price on there too?
@@JoergWessels Not only that, but Price's part is much longer. It's an entire monologue. Google The Nightmare TV Special and you can see Alice and Vincent do this live, but with the added pleasure of Vincent essentially stepping in to narrate the entire album!
I wouldn't say so myself. All known accusations aside, strictly following what I just heard, someone who thought it's appropriate to present someone a full-sized picture of himself as a gift doesn't strike me as smart or thoughtful.
The fact that he said the photo was of Michael dressed, had me rolling on the floor
Little did he know how impactful that statement would become.
@@diggs5518 MJ preferred kids
_ Dr. A. Phibes - and no one can forget who saw that ?!?
Vincent Price was a gentleman, a gastronome, and very, very witty. He left the world a better place for having been in it.
Hear! Hear! 👏👏👏
Really...
Do you think horror makes the world a better place ?!!!
@@johnstarter777 Vincent Price's work in horror films absolutely does make the world a better place.
You just have to ignore the last 40 years or so of the horror genre slowly abandoning all pretext of story or plot in exchange for ever more exploitative and gory visual effects. At some point it went from 'horror' to 'slasher', there's a difference.
You dont think some entertainment makes the world better? why do you single out horror? How has it hurt people?@@johnstarter777
His working here definitely made the world a bit better. Not just for the joy he gave to people but also for igniting the sparks of inspiration in the minds of sooo many. Even till this day. And that is an absolutely honorable achievement.
Such a wonderful man with a hilarious sense of humor! Rest in Peace Always.
Don't forget that wonderful mustach 😅
I miss stars like him and Betty White who were so funny in their unique way. Long gone era. It's not the same anymore. RIP to both.
I LOVED VINCENT PRICE AS AN ACTOR + LOVED HIS VOICE TOO.😁✌
Great voice too!
Mr Price is known primarily for the horror genre but he had great comedic timing. Greatness all the way.
The way he says "And I got NONE of it." 😂😂
"I'm not bitter, mind you. Just hurt."
Vincent Price's decision to take a flat fee of $20,000 for his iconic voice work on Michael Jackson's Thriller might seem surprising today.14 Jul 2024
Where is the rest of the interview?
Vincent Price was pure gold. That voice scared me when l was a child. Always great in interviews. And Thriller would not have been the same or as good without him. Calling Dr. Phibes.
And you know it.
Not just Thriller. I finally got to know more of the man when hearing his voice on 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo.
My brother and I were friends with the manager of the Lexington KY opera house in the mid 70’s. He was friends with Vincent Prices PR man. When Price did his one man show “Diversions and Delights” playing Oscar Wilde in Lexington, our friend hosted a dinner party and Price and his PR man came! We all sat around the couch listening to Vincent tell stories. It was a magical night. I have a signed playbill and a signed poster from Price. I will never forget that night!
I also saw Diversions and Delights bitd! The best story about Vincent Price that I've heard was from Richard O'Brien, who not only played Riff Raff in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but Richard actually wrote the story and the songs. He basically is the creator of the Rocky Horror phenomenon. At any rate, before Rocky Horror became a popular movie, it was a very successful stage production. On opening night in London, however, no one had any idea about how amazing it would be. Richard O'Brien stood in the wings on stage looking out at the crowd in the theater, nervously waiting for the show to start, wondering whether all the work he had put into "his baby" would pay off. The lights went down, here we go! Just then a thunderstorm was going on outside, adding to the ambience, "it was a dark and stormy night". According to Richard, when the house lights went down, the theatre became dark, and just at that moment a flash of lightning happened outside! There was a skylight in the ceiling over the audience, and when the lightning flashed it illuminated a few seats directly underneath the skylight. Richard could easily identify who was sitting there, illuminated by the lightning, and it was none other than Vincent Price! Richard said he smiled at that point and took it as a sign that things were going to work out fine, as if his horror creation had just been blessed by the master of horror himself!
@@moeball740 that’s amazing!
@@moeball740Wowser!! Thank you for sharing such a great story!
What an opportunity to be in his presence and hear him speak. I would have been unable to utter a word as I would have been awestruck.
I love this actor he's been in countless horror movies I'm now astonished as to why he never received One dime for his contribution he's a very important person.ashamed as to why he didn't receive anything I don't blame Vince for being hurt poor guy 😢😢 love you Vince r.i.p!!
There is something special about the older entertainers.. it's called Class.
RIP Mr Price 🙏
😊❤Mr.Vincent handsome man he was.
Great entertainer😎.
Soft spoken, a real gentlemen😍.
RiP MR.VINCENT 🤍⚘️
One of a kind ,simply UNIQUE.♥️
I think Keanu Reeves has class as well
AMEN!
We do love the aristocracy don’t we because we imagine they’re better than us.
@@dreamervanroomNope. I just appreciate entertainers who entertain without shoving their communism and debauchery down our throats.
Such a talented actor with a unique voice upon hearing it you know it's Vincent Price. He's an icon and a legend.
Vincent Price was one of the very best that ever was. He has a daughter that has been keeping his memory alive for the younger generations that did not get to experience much of him.
"The funk of forty thousand years" I love that line!
Me too!!!!!
And “To terrorize y’alls neighborhood” 🤣🤣
That would smell _really_ Bad!
And grisly ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom. And though you fight to stay alive, your body starts to shiver... for no mere moral can resist the evil of... the THRILLER!!! AAHahahahahaha!
Still gives me chills. RIP.
@@AaronLitz Like Momma June after hot yoga?
That quick wit never left him. 👏😂
"Dressed" lol
he was hilarious..
Vincent Price was one of a kind! ❤️❤️❤️
Vincent was telling the truth, people
think he was just joking, but Michael never paid him a cent for doing Thriller.
His son said he was so heart broken about it.
@@mlynettepinky595 *smh* Disappointing to hear that!
Mr. Vincent Price-to call this man an icon is such a gross understatement!
He spent hours in libraries studying the historical characters he played. He once said that the best way to play a villain was as someone who does not think he’s a villain. He explained that he had studied the lives of some of the most evil men in history and they had one common characteristic. They all thought their actions were justified. They did not think they were evil, and didn’t care if other people did.
Pure talent. A person that knows how to be funny with basic conversations in interviews like this is just pure gold. And VP was a master at it.
I have never thought a person was so naturally built for the supernatural as Mr. Price. His voice was unsettling yet comforting, all in the same spoken word.
An amazing voice for the ages... all respect.
😂 How true. Always loved "The Raven"... they don't make 'em like they used to!
That's a perfect description of his voice.
I just adore him… and always will!
So was Fred Gwynne for Herman Munster. Not to take away from Vincent Price. Still mad Michael never paid him right.
Boris Karloff was another one. He could go from charming grandfather to deranged ghoul in a heartbeat.
The great Vincent Price. Truly one of a kind. Thriller wouldn't be the same without him.
There's a small group that thinks Elvira should have done it but still
@@1000motormanWho’s Elvira?
@@carltroia6235 Look for Elvira the mistress of the dark. She started as a b movie host on some station in California before making it big in the 80's
@@carltroia6235 Cassandra Gay Peterson is an American actress best known for portraying the horror hostess character Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Peterson gained fame on Los Angeles television station KHJ-TV in her stage persona as Elvira, hosting Elvira's Movie Macabre, a weekly B movie presentation.
...
There will never be anyone like Vincent Price again. He loved the eerie and macabre but his sense of humor was out of this world
As a boy growing up in the early 70's Vincent Price terrified me most Friday nights. I remember watching Appointment with Fear horror films, every week I'd crawl up onto my Dad's knee watching between my fingers.
I'm not bitter just hurt. What a classic.
Imagine how Van Halen felt, when Thriller was higher in the US Billboard 200 than Diver Down
@@Nightdarebut Beat It helped introduce EVH to a lotta Michael Jackson fans who weren't into rock music 😮 I'd say it's a win-win for Eddie
@@rickleblanc8900
Nobody knew it was Eddie except the VH fans
He should have gotten 10% of the gross. Thriller album is nothing without price.
@@reginaldforthright805Totally agree. I didn't know he didn't get anything from the sales. That's wrong.
They say that Vincent was a darling man. He was the pinnacle of respectability, charm, and dignity despite his roles. Forever shall you shine dear Vincent!❤❤❤
He was my grandmother's cousin. My mom said she met him once and that he was really quiet and a "weird" guy. 😆
@@stairwaygoddess He could be anyone he wanted to be to anyone afterall he WAS an actor! At the same time they don't call it Hollyweird for nothing but still he deserves some respect. This poor man was gay when it wasn't acceptable so we don't know what he went thru. Peace-
@kilimanjaro5292 I just always thought it was funny that my mom said he was weird. Of course he was weird! That's why he was special and did the roles he did. She said it like an insult, I think that's what made him awesome and so good at what he did. I was definitely not being derogatory, I loved him and still do. 😀
I was told he wanted to do comedy, but kinda got type casted into horror.
@@falconcorban4128 I did not know that. Well, he certainly made the best of it didn't he?
Vincent Price was an awesome human being it was a sad day when we lost him I watched so many of his movies when I was growing up he made tons of them
Vincent Price was freaking awesome a legend 👏🏼
I've been a fan of Vincent Price almost all of my life. I'm 71.
I am with you. I am 55 but had so much enjoyment from his work including his radio work like in the radio series 'The Saint'
Same, I'll be 60 this year. Such an icon!
Same here. I'm a fan of his earlier movies from the 40's like House of Seven Gables, Song of Bernadette, Leave Her to Heaven, Dragonwyck and Laura and I also enjoy his later works like the abominable Dr. Phibes movies and also Edward Scissorhands. Vincent Price was class all the way!
@@TaDarling1 I forgot he was in the Song of Bernadette!! I grew up watching that movie every Easter! I liked him in a lot of movies he did with Peter Cushing (also Peter with Christopher Lee). I remember that camp movie Monster Club, loved watching it growing up, and seeing it again a few yrs ago I thought to myself, I really did love this crazy movie lol. When I saw his earlier work, like when he was in his late- to early 30s, he was very dashing and handsome!!
@@LiveANoursishedLife Yep, he was absolutely a snack!!☺
He was a real renaissance man.
👌👆❤️
With a man as iconic as Vincent Price, it's no surprise.
probably more crucial to him having young fans was him being on scooby doo, and of course the fantastic movies he made. we were definitely still watching them in the 70s and 80s. i adored him. i only recently found out he’d published cookbooks and bought one. gotta love a renaissance man 🥰🥰🥰
Such a gorgeous actor, too. Absolute PRESENCE on screen.
Actors like Vincent? They don't exists. Absolute legend.
Are they holograms?
@@Mike8981No, clones.
They do Exist !!!
They Exist beyond the grave
It's because of the changes to the studios and the manner that actors are generally unwilling to be "typecast" in the manner in which Vincent and his compatriots were in the horror genre.
I hope that's not the case, any actors today, using Vincent Price as a template would be incredibly welcome.
Growing up in the 70s man me and my brother would watch Vincent Price horror movies on a black and white 9 inch TV dang that brings back some memories man!
That was proper horror, Dracula..Peter Cushing..et al...❤❤
Brilliant Actor master in the red death
Our TV was larger than 9" but the memories are the same. The good days were amazing but the bad days were unbearable. We see things through rose colored glasses for sure but I would give anything to have 1 more day at the TV for Saturday morning cartoons with my brother.
We’re old now aren’t we
I watched snooker on b&w tv
Vincent Price was always one of Hollywoods highly respected actors
I will always adore Vincent. His movies kept me company as a child and into my early twenties. He was a true class act with a wonderful sense of humor!
Vincent Price was one of those actors who was everywhere. His voice and laugh were entirely recognizable by all ages. TV, movies, music videos, even Scooby Doo cartoons.
Wasn't he even in am episode of "the Brady Bunch", the Hawaii episode?
best horror film actor of all time
what an incredible body of work.i loved his tilex commercial
He also played the villain Egghead in the 1960s Batman TV series. 👍
I listen to him playing The Saint on old time radio. He was a class act. RIP Vincent.
@@Sunmoonstars976Yes, he most certainly was. I watched that multi-part episode series when it first aired. "Take ANY tiki!!"
This beautiful man (Vincent Price) came into our fish & chip shop years ago, buying dinner for his daughter who lived locally. Such a gentleman.. Vincent Price was a great man… R.I.P. …❤️
Where's the shop?
Need a good one for our vacation.
@@thisismagacountry1318 trust me it’s not a tourist area, Exeter UK.. an area called Stoke Hill. Chip shop gone now, it a convenience shop today..
@@thisismagacountry1318 Yeah, right! You just want to know, lol.
@@billie4106 Vincent Price isn't dead bro! The grave could never tame him
Nice story
I used to be a Butler for one of Mr. Price's closest friends, and he and his wife, Coral Browne, would come for dinner quite frequently. He was truly THE Nicest person I've ever met in my life. The first time I met him he reached into his coat pocket to pull out a pen because he was sure I was walking up to him to ask for his autograph. He was totally caught off guard when I said: "Hello, I'm "So and So", and you are...?" He laughed so hard as he exhaled a sigh of relief and said: "Oh thank God. How do you do? I'm Vincent". He honestly had no ego at all.
I wish you said this: "He was totally caught off guard when I said: "Hello, I'm GR Monkeykatt, and you are...?" He laughed so hard ..."
Vincent Price just COMPLETES Thriller , making an already GREAT song , Fantastic!!!🎉❤
When I was in 7th grade, my parents took me to a "theater in the round" to see Peter Pan. Vincent Price played Captain Hook, and he kept ad-libbing hilarious comments. GREAT sense of humor!!!
Oh that would of been fabulous!! I’m a wee bit jealous. lol
Oh my, that WOULD have been something to see ❤
imagine putting robin williams as pan and price as hook together on the same stage...
@@Scout_Serra. Would have been brilliant
Never knew 🤔 Thanks for Sharing!!!
Mr. Price had an old world feel to him on all levels: humor, dress, dedication to his art: he will always be missed even by those who only see him in video or hear him.
Since he was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri and graduated from Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, he must have picked up the "old world feel" when he attended The Courtauld Institute of Art in London to study for a master's degree in fine arts, and started his professional acting career at the Gate Theatre in London in his early to mid-20s.
OH GOSH, MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED, ADORED AND TRULY ADMIRED MR. VINCENT PRICE AS HE AND HIS BRILLIANCE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!
BLESS YOU DEAR VINCENT, SIR..
R•I•P🙏🏼💜🕯️✨🌹🙏🏼
Vincent Price was a classic and that distinctive voice. One of the many best of greatest hits actors.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️🌟✨
Vincent Price also helped Alice Cooper on the album Welcome to my Nightmare 1975.
Just coming here to say that... from the time he said, "I did an album..." I immediately had "Black Widow" jump in my head...
Then when he got to the part of "...Michael Jackson" I thought, "oh yeah...he did that 1 too"
And he read works by Edgar Allen Poe on Tales Of Mystery And Imagination - a theme album by Alan Parsons Project. Most appropriate.
Was he on any audio recording with him? I thought he was just in the, "short promotional film", for the title track? Paris Jackson also loves, Alice Cooper.
Vincent Price is the reason Alice accepted doing the Muppets show.
@@chaosh7040Same here 😊
Vincent Price, quite simply a class act, and a gentleman.
Such a legend. So polite. Wouldn't fight for his piece of that pie. Lol
Vincent Price, Victor Borgé, and a few others if their contemporaries were the best of the best of entertainers that shall never be repeated. I feel so privileged to have lived when they were at their best and most famous! ❤❤❤👍👍👍
a man of culture
His voice put the THRILL in thriller
I was quite surprised learning about his life how true that statement really is
@@andyparky2716Yes. He's just a wonderful guy.💙
Wow, the phrase has been used correctly. Just wow! And he is.
the man was a player
This man was a huge part of my childhood. Brought so much delight and happiness through stories to millions of kids. A truly great man.
'House on Haunted Hill' scared the daylights outta me back when I was 7 and saw it on Creature Feature, in NYC, wanna say 1971?
I watched Creature Feature every Saturday night in the early 70s!
@@ambrr_lily Yup, always preferred it to Chiller Theater. We'd have long arguments over this at recess.
I saw this short clip and I have the same feeling of affectionate… I couldn’t pass up listening to him one more time.😊
Loved him in 1958's The Fly, also. One of my all time favorite actors!
The second he started I realized that he is one of those voices that would take less then a second to recognize. Legend!
Vincent Price's laugh is what did it for me. Whenever you wanted a maniacal or creepy laugh, Vincent Price was the man to go to.
Man! Mr. Price was a true master. Classical, sharp, well manicured, well mannered, witty, and not even afraid of goofball humor.
And he hated it! I listened to his radio show. He had an episode completely dedicated to the fact he despised dressing like that. Someone even wrote a short horror story about it that they played on the episode. Vincent Price, a T-shirt and jeans guy. Who knew? Bob Ross hated his perm too. His publicist made him keep it. Ross was an Air Force vet, he wanted a high and tight.
He was so handsome with such a distinctive voice. RIP😊
Eye'm 👻 still alive... & Gramma always sed I handsome.
Vincent Price one of my favorite actors!
Back in the day when talk shows were fun, he was so funny, so sweet, so kind. I love him.
There was just something very likeable about Vincent Price when I was a small child. He was a legend. ☝🏻
I always loved him. I was around 6 or 7 years old when one of his movies came out in theaters, The Last Man on Earth. My older sister took me too see it. I remember being so terrified lol I fell in love with him, and horror movies, at that movie theater that evening. He was and still is one of a kind. ❤️
@@victorialander Funny - Will Smith did a redo of that movie - called I Am Legend - and the previous commenter called Vicent Price a legend (which of course he was). :)
@@be6715 I saw that movie too. I loved it! I've watched the original since I've been grown and couldn't believe how boring and dull it actually was compared to today's standards. None the less, it's still epic in my book. Vincent Price is a legend. Funny how the remake is called I Am Legend, it fits. ❤️
My best friend’s dad was a photographer and he did a photo shoot with Mr. Price in his L.A. home back in the 70’s.
Mr. Price was so charming and delightful - you could tell just by looking at all the great candid photos of him laughing and dancing in his living room with my friend’s mom.
A true gent. ✨💖✨
As a kid, if I noticed that Vincent Price was in a movie or tv show, I was guaranteed to watch it! He's a legend!
I think I've watched every film Vincent Price ever did. I was born in 72, and before cable, Saturdays were about cartoons in the morning and B Horror in the afternoon.
Thank you, Mr Price. 😊
An absolute legend ❤❤❤
Vincent Price Is a True Treasure!
He Was Very Nice Man even if he played Villains... That's Great Acting!
Great Voice n Actor Who Scare Millions With His Movies n Voice👍🌞👍
Vincent Prince was more dapper than the royal family. He is American but seems like a British gentleman.
Royal.
When you hear the term "American royalty", the image of Vincent Price should be the first thing you think of.
He and William F. Buckley Jr. Were the prime examples of that mid atlantic accent
Vincent came from a wealthy family.He had an art gallery with fellow actor George McGready.Vincent Price had the Vincent Price Collection with Sears, it was art works selected by him and sold through Sears..
I actually thought he was British all this time.
There will never be another Vincent Price an ** icon ** in the movie industry" - 🙏 RIP Vincent Price 🙏
you will always remain in our hearts
❣️💛❣️💛
I love Vincent! Thriller would not have been Thriller without him. MJ was genius to include Vincent on the track. Miss them both 😢
Timing is perfect
Great voice
Vincent was truly one of a kind. I wish a movie on his amazing life would be made.
Would be tough to find an actor that could do him justice! Worth a try, though.
@@jasonrodgers9063 I’d go to see Benedict Cumberbatch give it a go.
Johnny Depp should play him
i'd watch it.
No, Will Ferrell. He has the height and the look, plus he's good at doing character acting.
I miss him he will not be forgotten ❤
That was totally friggin awesome. Vincent Price is priceless.
His deadpan is so British
Great missed actor
He was American. Born in St Louis MO.
@@gdaddy5193Yes, we all know this. It's just an observation about his humour, not his nationality.
@@ianlowden6168 oh ... British has a different meaning. Didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up
@@ianlowden6168I get what you mean, hes always come across to me as British. Could be because of the Hammer horror films. They are so British.
@@Fii38 A common assumption was that Vincent Price did Hammer Horror as well. In fact his films were for other studios (such as his popular Edgar Allan Poe adaptations, made for Roger Corman and American International Pictures), though he did star alongside Lee and Cushing in many other films, and was good friends with them.
I seem to remember Michael Parkinson asking him how he felt about his career as an actor. I was an actor? said Price. " I was a ham dear boy. I was a ham". Of course he was so much more. Love him.
brilliant actor who never took himself too seriously.
Michael Parkinson appeared in "Madhouse", interviewing VP's character Paul Toombes.
As my grandparents used to say, “They don’t make ‘em like that anymore.”
When I was little, I never understood what they meant but now, in my 50s, I completely understand. Legend. 🙏
What a great actor vincent prrice was.
Deeply missed rip❤
What a lovely man. Don’t get actors like him anymore
No, we get spoilt brats like that new Snow White girl.
Vincent Price had such a great sense of humor.
He went to my mom’s high school to visit all the kids and make a speech, she said he was so nice. He is still a legend ❤
"It's marvelous how you keep up with things."
Gotta love a Brit's ability to deliver the best deadpan snark lines.
This man is immortal to anyone who grew up watching his legendary performances. We will never forget Vincent Price.
Vincent Price always seemed like a guy that would be delightful to just hang out with. He and Tony Randall might be the greatest talk show guests of ALL TIME.
I loved Tony he was a gentlemen and a true soul ❤ loved always ❤❤❤❤
Don’t forget Roddy McDowell😱
Vincent Price was a BEAUTIFUL man.
The best selling album of all time by far. Only Michael Jackson or Elvis could get Vincent Price on an album and I'm so happy he agreed. Wherever you are, price, Godspeed. You are missed and fondly remembered.
Im 54, and this man has been with me the whole time. I love him for many memories from my youth.
Same age.
Same experience.
Same feeling.
I love this interview so much. "I'm not bitter" Yeah right. 😂😂😂

My father met him once and said that he was friendly and soft spoken, a real gentleman. His knowledge of art was incredible.
I don't sleep much so I have been watching some movies starring Vincent Price. I have been enjoying them.
One of the best voices in human history and he was very witty with a sharp tongue that could cut through steak.
Nailed the British humour - which is rare for anyone outside of Britain!
He was British
@@monza1002000nope. He was born in St. Louis.
@@OConnorTnP1 parent's were Welsh and English, so that makes him English really.
@@metalicminer6231 No, not at all.
You think thats humor . It was facts Michael owed him 25,000 dollars he never paid him for his work on the album
I met him in the mid 70s and he was a charming polite, welcoming chap and very witty. I was visiting a friend in a show in London and he came into her dressing room and bent over to shake my hand. "Dr Phibes shook my hand!" Unforgettable!
His daughter was in my class at college.
I saw him at one of the parent weekend receptions and he was just beaming, such a proud father. Very personable with everyone. You could tell he was just a lovely man.
The great ,Vincent Price. Not only a brilliant actor. But funny, incredible at anything he wanted to do.
Met him at lunch at Spirit Square in Charlotte NC before his show. Delightful person, and he allowed me to give him a kiss of the cheek.
💖🥲Oh my, that must have been an amazing moment! It brought back a treasured memory of my grandmother telling us how she met Peter Falk in Charlotte!! It was in an elevator & she always got giddy bragging that he let her give him a hug!🥰 I've been a big Columbo fan most of my adult life because of that!💖
@@rushfan1970 You may like a Peter Falk film called "The cheap detective" it's a spoof of the 1930s and 40s detective movies and is very silly (in a goud way).
"I musta been screwey to fall for a dame who'd wear a hat like that."
I was around 2 years old when I discovered Vincent Price and have been IN LOVE with him ever since, he also wrote 2 cookbooks with his wife and I have both. What a WONDERFUL gentleman ❤❤.
Didn't even know he did a voice-over on a number-one album 😂
Such an amazing man.
Total class act. Could make you laugh, could scare the daylights out of you. A Master of suspense. Iconic voice. I always admired Mr. Price.
Met this man in a restaurant, 1980 didn’t know it was him at first until he greeted me with his voice … he was one of the classiest man in the restaurant
I haven't forgotten Vincent Price . One of a kind .
Micheal actually offered him a percentage of Thrillers sales, or a 20,000 flat fee. Vincent chose the 20,000.
He is so charming. I'd listen to him read the phone book...
May he Rest in Peace.
Vincent Price what a hero
I always liked Vincent, no matter what he was doing the real Vincent was visible.
Except in animation, his voice is what stood out there, Ratigan from The Great Mouse Detective is what I am referring to by the way.
He didn't need a cut of Michael Jackson's success. Michael needed his.
His sense of humour was priceless as his charismatic personality, acting and voice.
