Bill CosbyMy Father Confused Me, What Should I Do? Release Date: 1977 Running Time: 37:26 Label: Capitol/EMI Records Rating: ![]() |
Bill Cosby released only a small number of albums on Capitol, starting with two musical parody albums; this one was his first standup album in at least four years (he had been managing one or two a year before that point). You would think that a layoff that long would produce fresher results, but this album is really more of an indication of why it had taken so long -- there's some new material here, but there's also much repetition from previous albums, including childhood memories of his name being "Jesus Christ," talk about his father's flatulence, and more. There's some good new material here, though, including speculation on how the FCC would regulate his mother's threats of violence, ruminations on language, and your new duties when you get married. There's also a hilarious early take on the dentist bit that would later appear on the soundtrack to the film Bill Cosby, Himself. This mixed bag means that Cosby fans won't regret the purchase, but it's by no means essential. Sean Carruthers, All Music Guide
