Lewis Black's Vince Gill Story (Stark Raving Black)

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

I'm neither Christian nor Jewish, but when it comes to faith in comedy I'm a Lewish fundamentalist.

[@bohemianwriter1]

Know what you mean. I have the same relationship to George Carlin. Religions are for suckers - gagging to have themselves departed from their hard earned shekles to swindlers and self proclaimed gurus.

[@dr.barrycohn5461]

Ha ha.

[@musicauthority7828]

Lewis Black is amazing, his philosophy is absolutely spot on. every time I see him I remember why he is my favorite comedian. just fantastic!!!!

[@AJ-gv2hj]

We need more Lewis Blacks in this world, people who can be jaded and pissed and disagree with people but still find the ways to connect with them and make everybody laugh. Back in black has always been the absolute best part of the daily show.

[@martinvanek5951]

As an "old timey" Christian I loved this set. Thanks Mr Black.

[@RobMac333]

Lewis Black is the only comedian today that makes me laugh until it hurts! 😂

[@michaelggraham]

I was there for that benefit and Lewis speaks the truth. It was a charity benefit and Lewis had to cleanup his act…not easy. But he crushed it. He and Madigan had us dying.

[@mattblasing5672]

So jealous. I've seen them both, but never together at the same show.

[@rowanhard]

Lewis, you are a national treasure. Thank you.

[@gus2600]

I certainly hope that you are wrong !

[@capicolaspicy]

I've watched this clip so many times, up there with the very best pieces you have done sir! I loved it!

[@EverteFarnell]

This guy is the funniest comedian I've ever seen. I've loved his stuff for years. Consistently I end up howling with laughter when I see his work.

[@pennyking3823]

I never get tired of this guy. His observations are spot on

[@DaleCarterDrives]

As a life-long fan of country music and long-time writer and performer, his description of country music and Vince's voice are spot on! hahahaha My doctor looks like Lewis Black and it makes me laugh every time I see either of them.

[@newfreenayshaun6651]

And that's why you go and see the doctor anytime you notice something a little funny.

[@gbeachbarb1]

Vince has a voice like butter.

[@rubenrivera5448]

Outstanding Performance...

[@jimjett9996]

I do so enjoy listening to your sence of humor Mr. Black 🙃

[@LJW55]

I know this clip was posted 5 days ago but what I don't know is when it was recorded... Having said that I went to an Eagles concert in Brisbane, Australia in 2021 and Vince Gill was the replacement guitarist/singer for the recently (2016) deceased Glen Frey... I can only say that he was just FANTASTIC in his vocal & guitar expertise... Brilliant..!

[@peach495]

He is a good singer, but his guitar is right there with the best in the world.

[@randystevens4054]

@@janielunday5012 yeah, because the whole point of being on KZbin is to find minor discrepancies in other people's comments so you can snidely correct them!

[@douglas9220]

As I was watching this...Vince Gill came on the radio.

[@mylovesongs2429]

hope he cleaned it off!

[@DeeEllEff]

I can count on one hand the Country-Western musicians (still living) whom I respect, and Vince Gill and Willie Nelson are at the very top of that list. 👍

[@tomlambro2433]

Agree. But I can't pidgeon hole Vince Gill into "country western". There are 9 people that are called 'Eagles', and after the passing of Glen Frey, Don Henley gave Vince Gill an invitation to be one of them. That say's enough for me.

[@actownsend7288]

My conservative Irish mother in law loves Vince Gill, Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard

[@GeorgeWagner-dv3fe]

Have a great New Year. I'm a big fan. Lewis you are amazing.

[@JaneDoe-ci3gj]

An awesome story, and you tell it like only you can Lewis! Love your humour Lewis, you're the best!🤣👍 Greetings from Sweden!🇸🇪

[@spedoclctr]

Love Lewis black I can listen to him and George Carlin all day.

[@thomassmartin9728]

Lewis had me laughing so hard my eyelids hurt for twenty minutes! He is the absolute best, the funniest f***ing comedian on earth.

[@r00tboy45]

Lewis has been a favorite of mine for at least 20yrs. Funny, funny shit.

[@louiesmom7394]

I absolutely love Lewis Black 😅❤❤😂🤣🤣🤣 he never fails to make me laugh 😊

[@themrlukewade]

I want to know if Vince and Amy have seen this.

[@JaneDoe-ci3gj]

Same!🤣👍

[@bglrj]

You know they love it. Anything else would be less than perfect.

[@biffdorkinton555]

Priceless.

[@kellidinit3725]

Vince Gill really does have a beautiful voice. Great set.

[@Brian-nt1hh]

Thx Lewis, keep up the rant

[@johncurran6031]

Theodore Sturgeon was asked once why he wrote science fiction, since 90% of it is crap. Sturgeon replied, "90% of everything is crap."

[@DeeEllEff]

I believe Keith Richards pegged it at 85%, but added: “That’s so we can identify the other 15% that’s good.” Fair enough, I say.

[@simplylethul]

Both comments are stupid.

[@aaronstaley3549]

This is legitimately one of the funniest bits ever.

[@TTony-tu6dm]

Saw Vince Gill play with the Eagles after Glenn Frey passed away. He was fantastic

[@charlieross-BRM]

That was really worth hanging in and giving it the time it deserves.

[@tomloucks779]

Vince Gill is the best.

[@Anne--Marie]

Simply hilarious!

[@adsdad]

I’m a Jewish country music fan and love this routine. Just saw Vince this week and again next week. Lewis nails it.

Mr. Black sir, While I know who those two are, I have never heard one thing they have ever produced. It's just not in my wheelhouse. But you my good sir, I can listen to your performances all day, every day until the Sun goes cold. This is a great clip and thank you for posting it!

[@JohnSmith-cz9om]

Your wheel house is as small as a one hole outhouse. You need to expand your horizons, you're missing life, my friend.

[@charlieross-BRM]

Odds are if you have a radio on long enough to any station that is not classic rock, you've heard Amy Grant and didn't know it. She's - just - Amy - Grant. I can't think of anyone to mention as a comparison and I'm not an avid fan by any means. It's just that I've never changed channels and I change channels when I hear a lot of crap on the radio of any genre.

[@CzolgoszWorkinMan]

Vince Gill will put you to sleep and I mean that in the best possible way

[@squidishtendencies1523]

Thank you for posting this sir!

[@vincentzack]

I really hope Mr. Black comes to Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario soon. I would do as much promotion for his show as I could possibly do.

[@tylerp3327]

Shoutout to The Soo

[@hawghead4596]

Lewis Black was on one show of The Big Bang Theory. The one where Sheldon and Wolowitz had a bet on what type of cricket it was. Lewis played an entomologist that had lost his job at the University.

He wasn't exaggerating about Vince and Amy. Go watch them both and you will understand.

[@pedrodiaz5540]

All I can say is … Vince is great and Lewis is also great ! And now I’m going to listen to Vince jaja thank you Lewis Black !

[@barbarawalsh2875]

How doI love you let me count the ways❤

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

Having heard Vince Gill tell that story, I can attest it is fucking funny. I hope nobody ever tells Lewis what Vince’s golf handicap is. He’ll really lose it.

[@kkeelty64]

Wait, Vince Gill tells a story about how he did a show with his wife where they opened up for an aging miserable J_wish pr!ck? 🤣😂🤣

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

This is the song he’s talking about for anybody who is curious. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoSblaWhmq9oaKMsi=FWQY5_trrmmc8jfg

[@joescriva9122]

[@ctfamily40]

The screenshot for this video is his face as he says Amy Grant is made entirely out of cream, and it makes me very happy

[@moe42o]

Lewis and Kathy are my favorite! ❤️ Louie Anderson too!

[@dianemitchell1717]

Black is the only comedian who makes swearing funny.

[@kismypencek6185]

🤣 while Amy's voice is magnificent i thank god for u. I recorded myself singing an Amy grant song on part of my mixed tape to hear how i sounded and someone at my local pool stole my walkman.... i was mortified that it would go around town. It never came up in any context. Thank god it was pre-cell phones!!!!

[@cyanmanta]

"And now, here's Lewis Black" is great to say after about six seconds of awkward silence.

[@slovak4life1991]

"HANG IN THERE YOU'RE ADULTS!!!!" never fails to make me laugh.

[@Dorelaxen]

Lewis is like a glass of good Scotch. Tastes good. Burns a little going down, but you feel good afterwards, and you want another glass right after.

[@Couldnteventhink]

I just love Vine Gil.

[@myfrestuff3453]

Every day I not only press Lewis Black's Anger Button, I also thank God I don't ever have to suffer through Vince Gill's and Amy Grant's perfection, perceived or otherwise!

[@JonathanFox-uj1rv]

Thank you sir, always a pleasure. 😂😂 GDDAMF¡!😮😮

[@jeromematthews3814]

I like the one comment about not being Jewish but I'm Lewish! Me too! He's got a unique style and intelligence that is symbiotic and entertaining.

[@nightwolf2666]

I absolutely love your sarcastic, brain-schism-like emotions. You're like a pissed off version of Jerry Lewis combined with Rodney Dangerfield...2 of the best ever.

[@blackorchidmuse]

He needs to do a movie

[@mattblasing5672]

"She is made entirely out of cream" kills me every time.

[@gryjffrs]

Great story whether 100% true or not! Saw Vince in the early 90's but didn't realize he was that tall. I like the phrase, you're both out-standing in your field here.

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

He’s 6’3”. Still tall, but not as tall as Lewis imagines, lol.

[@gpmcd1044]

I found out only a few years ago that Vince is a pretty funny guy. Look up here on KZbin where Vince tells his dad that he’s about to meet Dolly Parton. Great story! There’s a few other videos of him telling funny stories as well. But yeah, I wouldn’t have scheduled Vince and Lewis to go back to back.

[@Thunder_Dome45]

I don't know about Amy but Vince's voice does sound like heaven, doesn't it?

[@angelanoe7223]

I love a big tall strong man...💞

[@Spiral.Dynamics]

We visited my boomer in-laws last weekend and my mother-in-law mentioned the song Miami my Amy because my name is Ami. I said I like Pure Prarie League’s song, so she looks it up on her smart TV and plays the KZbin video. I asked her did she know that was Vince Gill? Long story short they did not know that. I’m playing this next visit, but I’ll totally skip the first part.

[@annenelson5656]

Vince Gill and Amy Grant have been married forever. I think that’s great.

[@petebest4126]

Vince Gill was great friends with Arnold Palmer. Vince sang at Arnie's funeral.

[@jameshicks7125]

I can't help but compare Lewis Black to George Carlin. Completely different approaches, but both deliver sublime philosophical messages that go far beyond a simple joke. I was fortunate to meet him outside of a comedy club in Sacramento in the early 2000s after his show, where I was drenched in sweat from laughing so hard.

[@tomlambro2433]

You are kidding, right?? To put this guy in the same sentence as George Carlin is madness, laughable!!

[@mylovesongs2429]

Lewis is so damn funny! There is such a stark contrast between the g-rated Christian Country singer Vince Gill and the x-rated Jewish comedian Lewis Black! bwahahaha! This is a great video!!!

[@hippydippy]

LMAO! Too damn funny!!!

[@katiee263]

I would have been waiting impatiently through the country music to see you, Lewis. Maybe I would have even come in late.

[@eliotoole]

Hang in there yet adults 🤣🤣🤣

[@pshaw8406]

If it makes you feel any better, Lewis, when Amy Grant divorced her husband and married Vince Gill it was a huge controversy and they were widely condemned.

[@DeeEllEff]

Because, quite obviously, it was just lustful sins, doomed to end in misery and (another) divorce. Oh wait … no it wasn’t AT ALL: but all the criticism was just the typical, hypocritical “Christian” judgment of the lives of others!

[@kevinwright4452]

Vince is 6'3 btw...

[@tracyewaldroup6164]

Vince always re-enacts his father smoking a cigarette when he tells stories about his daddy. You should hear the one about Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton 😅😂

[@DeeEllEff]

I wish I’d heard that one. Dolly’s never spoken ill of Wagoner (or really anybody, I am aware of), but what a prick that guy was.
