Mel Brooks: Live at the Geffen (2015)

Mel Brooks is a legend with a legendary career that has spanned television, film and theater. Brooks is an EGOT, a true entertainer who has earned the industry's highest awards.  In this stand-up special, Brooks goes through some of the highlights of his life, does a few songs (that he wrote in the course of his illustrious career), and even does a Q&A with the audience. Admittedly, some of the questions seemed staged.  Brooks has a surprisingly good singing voice, and his songs have the same wit that he brings to the microphone.  Now I have to go watch his films.
