Uncle Ray: "I got my first rhythm from the whip. We all got our rhythm from the whip." Best comeback to a hokey setup in the last 40 years.
100%. Brilliant
Hockey set up...wtf...
@@martinlee2739 hokey is the word
That's old school every black uncle have those jokes yess love #blacklife
@@BEEVICKY1 100% My Uncle was just as funny.
Imagine Eddie, Charlie and Uncle Ray at Christmas dinner.
I would be on the floor with laughter 😂
I would pay good money to be a fly on the wall for that
Off the chain! I would have an aneurysm from laughing so much!!🤣🤣🤣
I would.have left my own family to be part of that Christmas dinner.
They would have to charge money....and I'm sure none of us would hesitate to pay
"I don't even have no name no more..... I used to be Ray Murphy.... Now I'm Eddie Murphy's uncle!!!"😂😂😂😂
Charlie used to make the exact same joke.
That was a killer line
The triple negative makes it correct too. Genius stuff.
Yeah, I heard that part too
@@MlninPricl you have eyes.
Eddie named his character Ray in the movie life. He loved his uncle
Ray Murphy was a legit funny dude. He's that uncle that everyone has who was just charismatic naturally. Had the entire family falling out at the dinner table on the holidays
I think that's why Eddie was laughing so hard he'd been laughing at him like this for years lol the dude was hilarious love the timing and delivery
@Ted Bundy ....yes........WAS.......Do you see Ray Murphy telling jokes today?
Samuel Jackson played him in Raw I believe.

The talent in this family is endless I would die of laughter if I sat at the dinner table with them
Likewise! 😂
Eddie was laughin on here, the same way he laughed as the Nutty Professor at the night club as Buddy Love!!
RayfieldA OMG! I was thinking the same thing 😂
"Oh reggie, You going places!"
Flex Piper 😂. Good one.
That’s his real big laugh
Did you catch the "oh shit", though?
Eddie Murphy's uncle is hilarious. I'm not even sure if that was a comedy set. If it wasn't oh, it sure sounded like it. And if it wasn't, his uncle is just naturally funny.
Jaming Johnson I agree. Really funny guy
It was natural coming from the Murphy men. Its like they have a quick come back for everything 😂😂 😂
He's a Murphy whadda you expect.Eddie is a combo of him and Charlie ( great story teller)
Jaming Johnson Uncle Ray opened for Eddie and Charlie sometimes.
TO WHOEVER UPLOADED THIS:
It is unbelievable to live in a world where this quality of content is publicly available, so many decades later, with flawless transfers, accessible on UA-cam in 1080p.
Maybe all of this stuff was available on DVD for decades... I have no idea. But whatever it takes to keep doing this, do it!
It's not 1080p
Dicks team uploaded it
you aint kidding
That's true.
flaggerify
Yes, it is.
One can select the quality in the menu (three vertical dots, upper right of video window).
Perhaps you might have asked how it was possible rather than stating a falsehood?
Liberty. Constitution. Republic.
That statement is so true Eddie Murphy IS black comedy for the 80s and he ain't got no business apologizing for who he is
There's a graphic on my screen the other day for legends of black comedy... pictured were kevin hart, will smith (as fresh prince) and two b*tches I didn't even know lol... SMH ;P
He singlehandedly saved SNL
Lol
@@BlueisNotaWarmColourI think it’s bigger than that. He was really the first true black undeniable superstar music movies comedy he was the IT man of the 80s him and Michael Jackson but Mike was the music Eddie was everything and everywhere
The whole Murphy clan is hilarious 😂
Uncle Ray at no extra charge. 😭😭. Eddie Murphy has me crying laughing so hard. His laugh is so contagious. He know his uncle was acting a damn fool. No he didn’t just start shucking and jiving. wow! 😂😂
😭😭😭😭😭
"I got my first rhythm from the whip." - Uncle Ray put that on a t-shirt
That uncle Ray is something else! MESSAGE!!!!!
John Adams That was hilarious!!!
Yeah he even recognized the moves of that white guy he was behind him with that whip
Uncle Ray should've been opening for Eddie. Dude was naturally funny.
R.I.P. Uncle Ray... You were definitely a class act.
He died?
@@wakeupstopsleeping6300 back in 2013
@@truckerkevthepaidtourist oh wow didnt know this only few years ago then his brother Charlie like a couple yrs now.
Awwwww that's sad RlP
@@truckerkevthepaidtourist Sad news
When Eddie starts laughing, he looks/sounds like he's imitating an Eddie Murphy impersonator.
That doesn't even make any sense? 😵
@@galemiller7422 It kind of does. When Melissa Villaseñor talks, it's as if she's doing an impression of herself.
Exactly. Lol. He sounds the same way Keenan Ivory Wayans did, when he impersonated Eddie Murphy on In Living Color in "Cape Rear": ua-cam.com/video/NxUO2VpUEVI/v-deo.html
@Gale Miller Charlie Chaplin once entered a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest and he came 3rd.
Uncle Ray is like the black Rodney Dangerfield
facts
Bullseye
That's exactly what I was thinking. He also played in Harlem Nights too.
Exactly what I was thinking hahaha
Dick: you got to get new shirts that say E.M.U on them
Uncle Ray: I gotta get new shirts period
😂🤣😂🤣
Hilarious ={}
I love Uncle's like Uncle Ray. Unfortunately, they are becoming a dying breed.
Yes definitely. These days we have the politically correct uncle
I have been invited in ten yrs to my last living 1/2 brothers house being a homeless brotha. It's called being Ashamed of past.
@@MrBryan247 umm... Ok? 😕
Lol I hear u but I plan on keeping it going
@@hassanjackson6261 Yes, Sir, Brother Hassan. The baton has been passed. Always remember to keep a joke and a smart comment in your front pockets.
who caught when eddie said ... " now you know what i'll look like in 20 years , not that funny any more is it " ? HILARIOUS !!!!
When Dick was showing off his move. Uncle Ray, “I recognize that...the guy behind me with the whip”!
I didn't even catch that...wow! lol
That strange moment when you realize that Will Smith’s entire shtick is a complete imitation of young Eddie Murphy. 🤯🤯🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh yes. You so right. Eddie Murphy is an institution he should own stock in Hollywood
For real for real!!!
I heard that howling laugh and was like woah
Imitation is the greatest form of flattery
He influenced everyone. Y'all must have forgot. Eddie is the king.
Mr. Zero like you, I remember.
Damn! RIP to Uncle Ray Murphy. I know it’s late. Didn’t know he was that hilarious!
that’s the dude that fell down the stairs and farted on coming to america lol
el brasi brhhhh my whole life has changed
What. The *FUCK?!?*
Oh Shiiit!! It Is!!
He played in Harlem Nights also
D H yea that was him...and his rent was due smh
He loved his Uncle and to put a face with the barbecue joke makes it even funnier after all these years
kane62074 yaass
"get that lighter fluid outta here"
"Now THAT'S a fire!!"
kane62074 ohhhhhh! THAT uncle Ray!!!! “Now that’s a fire!”.... “It’s my house!”
@@habaconia, nah, that was Uncle Gus.
34 years later, Eddie Murphy still looks exactly the same.
34*
You mean 34 lmao we not in 2009.
Not exactly the same, but he has aged well.
That's what money can buy.
You mean “We’re not”. NOT “We Not” this not the 1809 This is 2019
Met Uncle Ray , when I worked with his step son in long island N.Y. in the nineties, nice man . His step son said Eddie looked out for his Uncle with an annual stipend.
" i gotta get shirts, period."
Saw this as he said it lol
HA! I lost it at that one.
HE SAID I GOTTA GET SOME SHIRTS PERIOD! 😂💜
Imagine being at the Murphy house for Christmas dinner?
Eddie, Charlie and Uncle Ray is just one side of the table.
The family would be more roasted than the turkey 😂
Its called the klumps
@@gardenwarrior77 Now what did this post have to do with Samuel L Jackson?
Shit I’d barely eat with all the laughin. Probably gotta keep an ambulance on the scene from all the chokin on food from laughter lol
Uncle Ray should have been a stand up comedian, he sure was funny 😄
Uncle Ray remind anyone of JB Smoove? (both hilarious btw)
he reminds me of don rickles
@hellodavey1902: MAN! I was thinking the same thing! Lol
He reminds me of Shady Grady Wilson from Sanford & son
no. hard no
On everything
After decades of hearing about “Uncle Ray” I finally get to see him
He rolled down the stairs in Coming to America. 😂
@@heartbreak25 He was in Harlem Nights also.
Uncle Ray had some good moves.
I appreciate this because I've never seen Eddie laugh this hard.
His laugh cracks me up! 😆
He was embarrassed at 1st then just went with it...
So after today I jus noticed/realized Eddie put his uncle in Harlem nights😲
He was in Coming to America as well.
@@bootneyleefarnsworth1788 ...he was the one that fell off the stairs because his rent was due..lol
In Harlem Nights, Uncle Ray and Robin Harris planted that bomb and was walking away fast..lol
sirchopp0903 yes..😆👍👍
I saw that movie at least 15 times and never new that
Eddie is laughing so hard & lovingly only family can make you scream with belly laughter like that with pride & longevity with memory of life growing up its so wonderful to see how he looks like a regressed boy laughing at his uncle as he may have done as a child/teen.I love this clip Uncle Ray is soooooooooo awesome.
4:18 Eddie says "oh, shit" - Can't believe they let that slide on TV.
PBS. Rules don't apply to the government.
It was cable back when cable was actually working right.
Even today Eddie curse on TV and nothing happens and he's the only one who can do that "a true icon"
I fell out laughing at Eddie's Uncle (aka Raymond) 😭🤣 Eddie laughing in the background made me laugh even more.
I SEE WHERE EDDIE MURPHY GETS HIS SKILLS FROM
Facts!
This was talent gold! Uncle Ray had me laughing until, I cried! Oh Lord, to see Eddie, Charlie and Uncle Ray, on Holiday performing; would have me on the floor laughing! I loved this episode. This was so good!! 🤣🤣🤣
uncle ray's pretty funny, got lots of material. i had an uncle that kept everyone in stitches, told the best jokes and stories. i'd laugh so hard from his stories i couldn't catch my breath.
I’ve never heard him laugh that hard!! 😂 the whole family must be funny!
30+plus years later Eddie Murphy still look good for his age
Maybe going on 35 years later, this was the early eighties!
Money
Uncle Ray must have been in the military-his belt line is straight as an arrow!
😭😭😭
That gig line is sharp!
We got rhythm from the whip. Lol lmao. This man is funny.Getting his tap dancing on.
" I got my first rhythm from the whip."
I almost passed out laughing.
I know right!!
His "I don't get no respect" delivery reminded me of Dangerfield's.
Something You Said Right..I expected him to say ‘My Manager?..You know my Manager... Vinnie Boom Botz!”
I can now see firsthand how Eddie Murphy got his characters for movies like Nutty Professor
Eddie looks a lot like his uncle ray.
actually arsenio hall and uncle ray look identical
Makes you wonder...lmao
I see charlie in him too
I wonder why Eddie would call someone that is not related to him an uncle?
Duh!
I love how Eddie can't stop laughing at Uncle Ray.
He laughing like he was on Nutty Professor
Joe Mack i thought the same thing!
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂😂😂😂
That's family for you: embarrassing but endearing. To be able to take the people you love with you anywhere around the world is a wonderful blessing.
Eddie Murphy is adorable laughing at his uncle. His uncle is funny.
No wonder Eddie Murphy's so funny. His uncle and brother were hilarious. I wonder if the entire family was that quick witted.
When they do a movie biopic about Eddie Murphy he should play his Uncle Ray!lmao
My coworkers have never heard me laugh in 2 years.
They have now.
Damn his whole family probably funny
How is the whole family hilarious 😂😂😂
Well, Eddie made that quote in the beginning become a reality! When I think back to the 80’s, I definitely think of Eddie. The man was a staple of my childhood, Im happy to say! The stand-up movies Delerious and Raw. The blockbusters 48 hrs, Beverly Hills Cop, Trading Places... the man is an entertainment legend, and seems like a good guy to boot!
Babyteeth Eddie. Laugh and all. I miss this Eddie.
Aww that's cute
😭😭😭
Baby teeth Eddie though??? Lmaaaaaoooooo
That life changes you, one way or the other
He still has baby teeth lmao.
Uncle Ray deserved his own special 😂😂😂
He played the bartender in Trading Places and one of the guys in Harlem Nights
Connie O'Neal No! He wasn’t the bartender in Trading Places that’s another guy, idk his name but it wasn’t Uncle Ray!
@@chuckst98 see..now I had to go and watch it again...you are right..his name is Bill Cobb
@@cocean158 Its funny though because Bill Cobb does remind me of him all the time
He also played stu in coming to america falling down the steps your rent due
Also he was the guy that fell down the stairs in Coming to America
love how eddie laughs with his whole body
I bet the back and forth at family get togethers between Eddie, Charlie and "Eddie Murphy's Uncle" was next level, lolz!
I've never seen Dick laugh this hard. I love it
THE BLACK RODNEY DANGERFIELD IS UNCLE RAY
JOHN RMIREZ lol right on
Rodney truly suffered for his art
Eddie Murphy cracks me up. Even when he’s not acting, he’s acting.
eddie laugh so legendary bro
I think I just found my favorite new comedian...Uncle Ray. Lol.
Only a relative can make you laugh like this!! Even Comical GOATS like Eddie Murphy has that family member who in his eyes is probably the funniest person ever.. Eddie was surrounded by hilarious people, no wonder he is THE GOAT of comedy
Eddie laugh is dangerous 😭😂
Eddie was laughing like he was on nutty professor when he was mocking chris rock on stage lol
He was mocking Dave Chappelle, rather 😂
@@elikemkunneh9204 Yeah I meant Dave lol my bad.
That was Dave chapelle he was mocking.
They don’t make ‘em like Uncle Ray anymore.
Im right here toots
Eddie is the Uncle making them al laugh now.
I just learned that eddie and dick were close friends. You can see that they were having a lot of fun here. Uncle Ray doing his schtick too. Good for all of them.
"I gotta get some shirts, period."😂
6:13 I've never seen Cavett genuinely laugh so hard at someone, that being Uncle Ray Murphy. He didn't even laugh that hard at Eddie.
I got my first rhythm from the whip....omg Uncle Ray burned the entire place down!!!🤣🤣🤣
That family funny. RIP Uncle Ray and Charlie Murphy both natural talents in their own right.
1:10 Eddie: "Now y'all see how I'm gonna look in 20 yrs"...
20 years later...Still looks the same. Lol!
Uncle ray is hilarious. Between Ray, Charlie & Eddie it clearly runs in the family.
His uncle and Charlie got the same voice
Charlie's voice is way deeper than his uncle.
Who else saw Buddy Love when Eddie was in his seat laughing and heckling?
That's Eddie's genius.. he knows what works even when sitting in the background
I saw Ray and Charlie live at the comedy club in LA. It was and still is one of the funniest sets ever.
Humour seems to be in his genes....
They got it from the whip
I just saw this episode today on Decades TV so that's why I'm here. Why wasn't Eddie's uncle a household name?!! Friggin straight faced hilarious man!
You can tell Unc BEEN a fool. That’s why Eddie just let him go. Probably sees some of himself in his uncle
Charlie Murphy: "I'm Eddie Murphy's brother.
Uncle Ray: "I'm Eddie Murphy's uncle.
1:42 The Birth of Buddy Love 🤣🤣🤣
Hilarious! Thank you for posting. Legends
If uncle Ray had a talk show, I'd watch it.
'We go to sleep on the WAY to work'. Brilliant.
Eddie's eyes when Uncle Ray said Eddie was a fat and unfunny kid 😂😂😂
Oh my god,... this was SO funny thanks SO much for sharing!!!!
Actual footage of Eddies actual family being naturally funny.
LOVED Eddies reactions.
a true video gem!
EVERYONE: "Well, that was an...int'resting SNL sketch. Wait. What? Oh."
I didn’t even get a good look at Uncle Ray, he’s so funny I messed up my eyes with tears of laughter 😂
Can't tell if hes just being honest and everyones just laughing as if it's a joke because they think it is, or if it actually all is jokes that hes just executing really convincingly ...
Na, he's legit deadpan funny, he knows it. That's just the way he is, I imagine, just has a funny take on things.
It was definitely real. I remember this on PBS; crazy TV moment.
ua-cam.com/video/xECUrlnXCqk/v-deo.html
It seems like he was getting a lot of grievances off his chest
Uncle Ray was killing it. Polished one liners one after another. LOL
Eddie Murphy's uncle is quick with those jokes!
Awww this was so precious to watch. They're all obviously talented in one way or another. Thanks for the upload.
