I don't care how bad a day I'm having, Redd Foxx takes me out of it. His jokes are funny; however, there's something about his delivery and demeanor that just catapults his routine into the stratosphere. Sanford & Son is one of my all time favorite shows, but even better are the albums he put out in the sixties and seventies. I'd love to have been in a club where Redd Foxx was holding court; however, these old records will have to suffice.
Take a listen to some old school Foxx.
