It’s Christmas in August, kids! The good folks at Metafliter dug up an ungodly amount of YouTube goodness from my favorite artist ever.*

Here’s one to get started, in which he sends a clear message to his rival, Memphis wrestling legend Jerry Lawler.

From the first episode of SNL
The greatest Elvis impersonation
Andy on the Dating Game
Latka as ultra-slick Vic Ferrari
Great segment from his 1979 TV special
The Has-Been Corner
The fourth wall comes tumbling down on live TV
He apologizes and finds Christ
This is billed as his interpretation of Dostoyevsky’s The Idiot, but I think some YouTube user just made that up
He meets David Boner
Congas on Carson
Helping Southern wrestling fans
“I’m from Hollywood.”
Serenading Memphis
Vs. Jerry Lawler on Letterman
Memphis tagteam
Tony Clifton on the Dinah Shore Show

Fantastic Entertainment Tonight-style segment about Tony Clifton

Interview with his ex, Elayne Boosler

*One day, just to even the scales, I’ll do a massive tribute to David Byrne, my other favorite artist.
