The first two albums by Richard Pryor—1968’s eponymous debut and 1971’s ‘Craps’ (After Hours)–rank amongst the rawest comedy albums to emerge from the Vietnam era. After spending much of his early years trying to be the second coming of Bill Cosby, the comic took a sharp left turn into “blue” territory while also opening America’s eyes to what was happening beyond the bubble of White America in the Nixon era. Both albums are packaged with exclusive new liner notes from Becoming Richard Pryor author Scott Saul and 25 bonus tracks between the two titles containing outtakes and previously unreleased sketches.
