50 Greatest Comedy Albums

THE 50 MOST INFLUENTIAL COMEDY ALBUMS
Written By
Jim Mendrinos
These are the albums that influenced the people who make America laugh today. Notice I didn't go for "Best Comedy Albums," or "Funniest Comedy Albums;" that would be subjective. Instead, I asked the comedy performers, from the Smothers Brothers, down to open mikers what influenced them. To that, I added information like record sales, chart positions, and Grammys won; and I came up with an informal list of what is influential.
