Classic act... one of the funniest ever! His comic timing was absolutely perfect. His roast of Sammy Davis, Jr. is hilarious too!

A lot of the folks at the roast including Foster Brooks are no longer with us. I'd try to catch his routines any time he was on. Very funny man. Thanks for posting that. RIDE SAFE.

I remember reading somewhere that he had a bad speech stutter, and that is how he came up with the Drunk act to cover it. Doesn't matter to me one way or the other, all the good comics are gone!
Thanks for posting this Evan,

Brooks and Red Skeleton were our favorite comedians.  And they never had to cuss to make us laugh.  3 Stooges comes to mind also. 
Brooks (airline pilot) in the bar with Martin will make you cry.
