...please enjoy comic genius Richard Pryor as he invents death metal. (Don't blink or you'll miss a shot of Sandra Bernhard in the audience.)
I should add two things.
1) This predates Spinal Tap by seven -- count 'em, seven -- years.
And
2) That isn't actually the funniest bit from the Pryor show.
THIS is.
Words fail me.

The riff in the first clip is too good to be death metal. :-)
I think those ARE The Pips.
Oh yeah, absolutely. That's the cream of the jest...
What? No Stonehenge? No dancing dwarves?
My memory always thought the "...and the Pips!" segment was longer.
I remember seeing that when it first aired. I thought it was hilarious!
Richard's TV show was short-lived. Which was a shame. Funniest man I've ever seen or heard.
agreed re: the Pips. I have told people about this for years.
Spinal Tap reduced to seven minutes! What an incredible segment, great find. Richard Pryor is perfect.
