My favorite comedians,

George Carlin

Old Eddie Murphy (when he was younger he was really funny. Great impersonator. Also good at wisecracking. Delirious, Raw are his famous standups but he has some tapes/CDs of old standups he did when he used to tour.)

Chris Rock

Redd Foxx

Richard Pryor

Sinbad (I give this guy a lot of credit because he can stay on the relatively clean side and still be very funny. An underrated comedian.)

Ellen Degeneres

Bernie Mac

How about Harland Williams? IMO he's been one of the funniest comedians out there. Especially his guest appearances on Late Night With Conan O'Brien are always a riot.

While I am not familiar with Derek & Clive, I do love the original "Bedazzled" with Dudley Moore and Peter Cook. Remember: the devil always wears red socks! :twisted:

Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band

'Gorilla' 1967
'The Doughnut In Granny's Greenhouse' 1968
'Tadpoles' 1969
'Keynsham' 1969
'Let's Make Up And Be Friendly' 1972

The first three albums are incredible! Inspired British lunacy.
