Critic's Review
Brian Flota, All Music Guide
Steve Martin's glorious debut album of stand-up comedy has a little bit of everything, from singalong songs that include his excellent banjo playing ("Rambln' Man/Theme from Ramblin' Man" and "Grandmothers Song") to genre-deconstructing anti-comedy ("Vegas," "Closing"). His surrealistic wit and his ability to mock the conventions of stand-up comedy (while simultaneously adhering to many of them) make Let's Get Small a comic masterpiece that hasn't aged a day since its release.
