Rare Don Rickles video as host of the 1980 HBO Stand Up Comedy Special: Don Rickles And His Wiseguys. Don does his usual ribbing and audience insults as the host and also sings and dances in this opening act, before introducing the main comics of the show:
Johnny Yune, Jack Wakefield, Bruce Baum, Pudgy (Beverly Pudgy Wines), and Waylon Flowers & Madame. Forgive the video quality (recorded on betamax in 1980).
“To anyone who’s interested in how I developed my style, I have an easy answer: I talked to the audience and prayed. I stumbled upon a self-styled theatrical performance. I discovered that my kind of storytelling had nothing to do with canned jokes and written routines. I just let it happen....” -Don Rickles, from his book (Rickles’ Book with David Ritz).
Don Rickles (1926 -2017) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, and author, known especially for his insult comedy. A headline performer at Las Vegas hotel-casinos and peripheral member of the Rat Pack via friendship with Frank Sinatra, Rickles received widespread exposure as a frequent guest on talk and variety shows, including The Dean Martin Show, The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson and Late Show with David Letterman.
