The first Richard Pryor album I ever owned was titled "That Nigger's Crazy." It was quite funny. The LP was lent one evening to a friend at college, along with Led Zepplin 4, and I never saw either again.
He's been deteriorating for nearly 10 years from MS, so his passing is no surprise.
He was married six times. That kind of pain (that many marriages breaking up) needs the catharsis of comedy.
I hope his rest is peaceful, he surely gave a lot of us a lot of laughs.
