“If 10,000 frankfurters, 10,000 buns and 10 gallons of mustard can mean the start of a beautiful picnic then Rich Little – through his unique talents – has changed it all into a magnificent banquet by inviting more than forty of the best known personalities of our time to assist him in this slightly irreverent, but warmly affectionate, tribute to the great Frank Sinatra …
… Everyone has their own memories of Frank Sinatra. To the world at large, he was a matchless interpreter of the popular song. To film buffs, he was a fine and often sensitive actor. To the media, he was an irksome hell raiser whose escapades made him an easy target for the tabloids and the scandal sheets. But to Rich Little, who knew him for many years and performed with him on numerous occasions, he was … Well, why not let Rich tell it?” — Ken Barnes
Just strap yourself in and enjoy the ride as this high-octane, one man comic bonanza ignites the stage with offbeat characters and cutting-edge satire. Clever, insightful and self-deprecating to a fault, Don brings home huge laughs while conveying an innocence and vulnerability that connects with even the most jaded of audiences.
Don’s willingness to admit his flaws and exploit them for maximum comedic potential has a way of not only entertaining, but at the same time tapping into the humanity in all of us. It’s a uniquely fun, clever and clean act with an incredibly broad appeal Ð an act that has earned him rave review and die-hard fans throughout the country.
Don is the only ever two-time winner of the prestigious “San Francisco International Comedy Competition” the same competition that helped launch the careers of Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Ellen DeGeneres and Sinbad. Don has continued to impress audiences and critics alike with back-to-back Martin Short episodes (a first for the show), and a non-stop touring schedule as one of the most sought-after headliners on the comedy scene today.
His comedy is absurd yet truthful. From hysterically revealing tales of bedwetting and credit problems, to an all out satire of his life as a husband and father of two, Don’s high energy rapid-fire delivery will have you laughing so hard that you won’t even notice he’s working clean.
When he’s not ranting about cell phones, Idiots Guides, or technology run amok, Don is delivering an incredible slate of caricatures that will leave you wanting more.
Clinton Jackson is a rarity-a comedian who works clean. A fighter against stereotypes, he has been compared to a young Bill Cosby. His comedy is mostly observational -about life, kids. On stage he dances as if he were in a boxing match, delivering material that is as much fun to watch as it is to hear. He is clever and engaging.
On Nuff Said, Clinton reflects on life in America today. We are privy to his personal opinions on everything from the “San Francisco scene,” to “Heaven’s Gate/Star Wars,” to the “un(i)-bomber,” to feminine “mood changes.” His comical observations will make you see life in a different light than ever before-and a welcome change it is.
Meet Jim Smith, Jonathan Winters’ peripatetic buddy. Regardless of season of time of day, Jonathan can never reach Mr. Smith by phone … but that’s a stroke of luck for fans of comedy’s most beloved genius. This recording is made up of actual phone messages left by Jonathan Winters on his friend’s answering machine. The result is a tribute to comedy’s brightest mind at his improvisational best.
“In 1959 I took one guitar lesson, learned three chords and Mule Skinner Blues. I wrote “Tribute To Johnny Cash” using every Johnny Cash song I could think of.
I wrote “Dear John” for Johnny Cash and waited 15 years for him to record it. I don’t know if he ever will, but here it is.
Both “Tribute” and “Dear John” were produced by Randy Hart and the late Kin Vassy.” — Gary Mule Deer, 1997
From the Comedian that brought you the CD’s, “On The Inside”, “Out Of Bounds”, “I Wanna Go Home” and “Mr. New York” here is his newest release on DVD. Bobby’s DVD, “Live!” was filmed during a performance in New York. Approximately 1 hour.
Pat Paulsen, America’s favorite presidential candidate has had quite an illustrious career. Pat enjoyed performing live in front of millions of people… and this CD captures Pat’s 90-minute Super Bowl halftime performance in front of 48 million crazed people. (Actually, this CD was recorded during a show in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The tape recorder broke down just before the Super Bowl gig, and Pat got so angry that he stormed off stage refusing to perform under such conditions… so they played a game of football instead.)

“This album is dedicated in loving memory of Rodolfo & Elizabeth Moreno … siempre viveran en nuestro corazon” — Rudy Moreno
Born & raised in Los Angeles, Rudy grew up in Lincoln Heights a tight knit community that has produced many famous actors, singers, athletes and even a comedian.
Born and raised in Oakland, California, Cinton Jackson is the youngest of 3 and the only son. An imaginative child inclined to perform, Clinton stood empty handed at “Show & Tell”, told his jokes and officially claimed his identity as a stand-up comic at the age of 9.
After graduating from high school Clinton began to hone his craft in San Francisco’s thriving comedy scene, quickly moving up the ranks to become one of the youngest headliners around. He has appeared on many stand-up comedy television shows including his own half hour special on Comedy Central and most recently The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson. When not headlining his own shows Clinton has been the opening act for such notable artist as Aretha Franklin, Donna Summer, Dennis Miller, Chris Rock, and Steven Wright. Clinton has also recorded and released two full length comedy CDs, both of which are regularly featured on satellite radio comedy channels.
Following an acclaimed showing at HBO’s prestigious Aspen Comedy Festival, Clinton was cast to co-star as affable science teacher “Mezz Crosby” on the WB’s “Nick Freno: Licenced Teacher”. Subsequent roles as teachers on shows such as the Disney Chanel’s “That’s So Raven” and Nickleodeon’s “Taina” further showcase Clinton’s trademark guy-next-door appeal with. Additional guest appearances on other sitcoms have shown that Clinton’s talents definitely reach beyond the stand-up stage.
Upon signing with the Commercials Unlimited agency Clinton began to work in television commercials. With what one casting director called “a natural ability to connect” Clinton was cast to star in numerous national commercials including Jeep, Subway, Circuit City, Old Navy, 21st Century, Nissian, and AC Delco.
Stand-up remains Clinton Jackson’s first love and greatest passion. In addition to comedy clubs he is very popular on the corporate event circuit, doing shows in which he often incorporates his keen ability to improvise with his audience. The San Francisco Chronicle says, “on stage Clinton Jackson moves as if he were in a boxing match delivering material that is not only hilarious to hear but brilliantly visual as well. He’s good natured, clever, and engaging with a unique point of view, earning him the respect of his peers and giving him a broad cross-over appeal. “
