I would nominate George Carlin. He does tend to get a bit political at times, but he can really bring out the laughs. I really like his style. SOme people find him too harsh, but his in-your-face observational humor is a favorite.

How about Richard Pryor? He's been around for a while and his body of stand-up comedy is impressive.

Steve Martin is also a good choice. I don't care for Robin Williams in stand-up. His routines are a bit too frantic and random to follow and enjoy. I have really liked Williams in some of his movie roles. I suppose that his talent is best for me when it is focused by a director into a particular vein.
