Why This Record Matters
Comedian captures Eddie Murphy’s live stand-up at DAR Constitution Hall during his early-1980s rise as a performer. Its fast-moving routines combine character work, social observations, and deliberately provocative material; the album won the 1984 Grammy for Best Comedy Recording. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="3"}
Collector Note
This 1983 US stereo LP carries Columbia and The Entertainment Company Records credits under catalog number FC 39005. The supplied release details identify it as a Pitman pressing, but the provided runouts—AL 39005-4 and faint BL 39005-5—do not show the usual “P” mark that would confirm that plant.
