The great comedians don't need dirty jokes and foul language. Flip Wilson was brilliant.

Played this cassette over and over in the 70s hanging out with siblings and cousins. Simpler times.

I grew up with this! It's my great excuse whenever I buy a dress that I could live without, and with money more well spent. Well, they're always on sale and I just begin by trying them on. Then I blame it on the Devil! - and Flip Wilson.

Genius - so, so human, gentle and respectful of our human foibles. So cute how Flip loves his woman even though the Devil made her buy the damn dress - just joy ! absolutely love it

Flip's humor was wonderful. My uncle was in show business, a very private man in those days, and said Flip was a first class good human being.

The comedy of this era was the best. No cussing, dirty talk, etc. Just good old fashion fun. I love it.

Genius - how women are so sweet and funny and how men tolerate their sweetness and it all - love this this cracks me up every time. Brilliance here people. I'd buy her a dress just for making me laugh. Flip Wilson - I very much like this cat and his humour was always on point, but never coarse. good stuff

@Elle-on8wu

Soo funny...! This is a classic Flip Wilson will be remembered for. Geraldine had nothing whatsoever to do with buying that dress! Lolol

My father had this on 8-track. Geraldine was the funniest along with Ruby Begonia. "Do Ruby Begonia ring a bell?". Flip's Lemonade Stand, "All you can drink for a dime". Go-Rilla. The Great Motorbike Tennis Shoe Race.

+UprTupr My dad has it on a record. It still makes me laugh! Flip Wilson had the talent to tell a clean joke, and make it hysterical. Most people don't have that charisma, but he definitely had it!

We had this album at home as well. We'd listen to this Bill Cosby, Moms Mabley, Redd Fox. Actually Flip was the very best at this. I saw him at about 13 at the Regal theater with my big sister. He was totally clean and hilarious too. You could do both. I wasn't allowed to see Redd Foxx, too young and he was really graphic but hilarious too. Take me back to real comedy!

@Zeppolino100

Redd Fox was graphic, but even he was SWEET about it--and so darned funny!

Omgosh, pure genius here!!! I love & miss this comedy during Covid-19 times!!
I need a reason to smile nowadays I feel so angry that the current Administration does not care about people of color! Yup, I'm a whitey devoted to our brother's & sister's of any color or race.

Denzel Washington's rationale for Will Smith's behavior the devil made him do it .reminds me of Flip Wilson's comedic sketch "the devil made me do it. "

@snowrocket

I LOVED Flip's humor; SOO funny! The best part is this bit DOES point out a truth; you make bad decisions one little justification at a time. The Devil doesn't MAKE you do it. No. He ENCOURAGES you to do it a little at a time. And before you know it, you're doing some really dumb stuff!

@Zeppolino100

Don't forget Queenn Isabella of Spain (who sounded remarkably like Geraldine) running around saying "Chris gonna find Ray Charles!" (After "He in America?") Hilarious!

@georgecrenshaw6309

At the beginning of this, Flip said the main speaker is a Reverend. That makes the punchline more ironic.

i always thought that dress was hideous. I was alive back then when ugly dresses like this was hittin. and this was one of the ugliest. Girl, you better watch out for the enemy. He'll put you in clown clothes.

@geoffrogue3049

I seem to remember a version where the the woman tells the devil something like, "Get thee behind me devil," and the devil replies with something like, "You look good from back here too." Am I just imagining that, or was there a version like that?
