Taped live at Harrah's Hotel in Reno, NV, the album finds the master storyteller and mimic in his onstage element, reliving, reliving the joys and terrors of his youth to the delight of an adoring crowd. Along with the Fat Albert stories, the album includes a tale about Russell and another about Cosby's dad's car plus more grown-up stories about Cosby's wife and children, and a hilarious experience he had in Italy.
