''That Nigger's Crazy'' is the third official album release by the late comedian Richard Pryor . It was recorded live at Don Cornelius ' Soul Train nightclub (named after his TV show) in early 1974. This album won the Grammy for Best Comedy Album for 1974.

Initially released on Stax Records under their "Partee" imprint, the album's success was temporarily derailed by the sudden closing of Stax later in 1974. Undeterred, Pryor regained control of the master rights to the album and signed with Warner Brothers Records almost immediately; the album was reissued on November 10 , 1975 on their Reprise subsidiary, three months after Pryor's '' ...Is It Something I Said? '' was released.
