Sanford and Son made Redd Foxx a household name. This HBO On Location features his night-club act, raw and uncensored, and gives the viewers another side of this comedic genius.

Starting 30 years before his Sanford days, he performed with the likes of Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey and the Will Mastin Trio. The Silverbird Hotel in Las Vegas presents the act in the true Redd Foxx tradition.
