  • Robert Klein: 'Better Than I Ever Was'
    Robert Klein: 'Better than I ever was' By JAMI KUNZER [email protected] APRIL 3, 2014 • 10:05:09 A.M. Before Jay Leno, Billy Crystal or Jerry Seinfeld, Robert Klein was delivering the type of observational jokes they’d emulate. As Leno revealed during his final episode of “The Tonight Show,” a poster of Klein was the only thing hanging in his apartment when he struggled as an aspiring comedian in the 1970s. When Klein first began entertaining audiences more than 40 years ago, comedians were a different breed. They wore cuff links and tuxedos. They stood out. Klein was pretty much like everybody else. His jokes weren’t one-liners. He talked about what everyone else was talking about. He made life funny. “My material has always been organic,” he said. “I talk about life... Just like a good novel, if you make good observations, it’s universal.” And at age 72, he’s still making life funny. He’ll take the stage – his favorite place to be – for another one-man show at 8 p.m. April 5 at the Raue Center for the Arts, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake. It’s a show, Klein said, that might surprise people. “After so many years in the business, I’m still a well-kept secret in person,” he said. “I’ve never been a big tour guy . In person, it’s a much different thing than a few minutes on [David] Letterman’s couch.” It’s a couch he’s been on about 50 times, by the way.
