Gilbert Gottfried’s introduction to Drew Friedman’s “Private Lives of Public Figur

Gilbert Gottfried’s introduction to Drew Friedman’s “Private Lives of Public Figures.” Farewell to the Miles Davis of standup comedy.
—
So described by Paul Provenza because Gottfried would do things in comedy that were completely hilarious and nobody could explain how he did it. Like Miles Davis (well, the “nobody could explain” part).

To which Gilbert replied, “I personally think Miles Davis is a lot funnier than me. And he’s working more.”

(Published in 1993, the book collected Friedman’s cartoons from Spy magazine.)
