Album Description
Available in:
To Russell, My Brother, Whom I Slept With is the sixth comedy album by Bill Cosby, and his eighth album overall. It was recorded in 1968 in the Cleveland Public Auditorium, and released later that year, on a 12" vinyl record
The day of the recording, Cleveland experienced a severe ice storm which tied traffic up considerably. Bill delayed the opening of the act for an hour to give people time to arrive and find their way to their seats. When the hour was nearly up (and no one had entered the auditorium for the last ten minutes for so) a woman arrived and made her way to a seat very near the front row. The auditorium was very quiet and the sharp click-click-click of her high-heeled shoes echoed loudly throughout the auditorium. When she had seated herself, Bill cupped his hands around the microphone and in a deep, stentorian voice announced "You're late!" The entire auditorium erupted in laughter and the show was underway.
This was Cosby's first album recorded in a large venue rather than an intimate nightclub.
Like many of his other albums and stand up work, Bill Cosby tells great detail into his childhood. Many years later he would host Kids Say the Darndest Things where he'd get children to talk about their childhood.
Side One covers topics such as the first sin ("The Apple") and Cosby's two daughters ("The Losers"), and Side Two is one long story, talking about childhood antics in bed when he and his brother were supposed to be asleep.
