Blue Humor implies stand-up comedy at its raunchiest; while any comic employing expletives in their act can be considered to "work blue" (as opposed to "working clean," without the use of obscenities), only the most truly vulgar can be considered true blue. Arguably the most famous blue comedian was Redd Foxx, who for years released "party albums" so scatological that most record stores refused to carry them; however, the blue humor of Foxx's '60s-era peak is quite mild in comparison to the work of latter-day stand-ups like Andrew "Dice" Clay, as changing cultural values require blue comedians to be as consistently vulgar as humanly possible.
