I've just been watching Bill Bailey's Dandelion Mind, and it's just as good as his other shows if not better. His shows though aren't what a lot of people would consider a pure standup comedy performance, with so much centering around musical improvisation and pre-recorded clips that tie in with his on-stage jokes. Throughout the course of the show he engages in typical spoken standup, musical parodies, a poetry reading, and even music using instruments he has constructed himself.

My view/question is this - are there many true all round entertainers like Bill Bailey left? People who don't rely on a single element to keep the audience amused, but provide a whole range of entertainment within a single show?
