Originally released in 1968, Richard Pryor’s cover art (shot by legendary photographer Henry Diltz) should have been enough to let the buyer know this was not your average comedy release.
Richard Pryor’s original eight tracks make up disc one of this new edition, while the second disc contains 21 tracks from the out-of-print Evolution/Revolution: The Early Years (1966-1974) collection - originally compiled by producers Reggie Collins and Steve Pokorny. With new liner notes from Scott Saul, author of Becoming Richard Pryor, and restoration from Grammy-winner, Michael Graves, Richard Pryor is ready to start a comedy revolution. Again.
