I knew Andy tangentially during his Improv days in NYC. Back then he introduced the comics and also did his immigrant character. He was one weird dude.
Later he was in a short lived Broadway play about wrestling with Debbie Harry of all people. I think it was called something along the lines of The Venus Fly Trap. Don't hold me to that.
If my memory was correct, it never even opened. I saw a preview and Andy decided to stand at the front doot welcoming guests. He wouldnt get out of character even tho he knew me.
Anyway, this filmed concert is legendary. Perhaps his humor doesnt translate today, but he certainly was an original. I always thought he was brilliant. Or was he just insane? Read about the Taxi stories and how difficult he was on set.
And then there was his fixation with wrestling women. I always thought he did that so he could feel them up.
A true original.
