Steve Martin’s Unseen 1978 Wild and Crazy Guy Promo is as Expected, Wild and Crazy

posted June 21, 2012 by

Steve Martin's 1978 album, Wild and Crazy Guy caught him at the peak of his stand-up comedy fame and went on to be one of the most popular comedy albums of all time. At the time of its release, Steve and Warner Brothers had put together a promotional video that was to be used by record stores to push the product. Steve offers up the lucrative prize of $1 dollar to the company that sells the most records and mouths along to some of his classic bits. Even thirty-something years later, the video holds up incredibly well and captures Steve's untouchable silliness at the time.
