 Rating: - Excellent middle period CarlinThis was the first Carlin album I heard (I knew of him from TV appearences like the Baseball vs. Football routine). At the time, I was bowled over. I was glad I still liked it now. This album could have used less commercial parodies and more stand up but overall a great listen. The title track is a classic, also love fussy eater and have a nice day. He's gone beyond the hippie persona of the 70s but hasn't become the curmudgeon of his last few years. Rating:  - Hilarious!This is one of my favorite Carlin's and I was lucky enough to see him live performing most of this material. I love the place for my stuff monologue "going up in the airplane looking down at all the little places full of stuff." The fussy eater always reminded me of things my mother said and along the way George interjects his hilarious "announcements." Along with Class Clown and Toledo Window Box, this is one of the best early Carlin discs to get! Rating:  - Carlin in the early yearsI am a big Carlin Fan, BUT Starting from the 90s on. The early years are not so my favourite thing. Rating: - Hilarious experimentationThis album is unique to Carlin in that rather than nonstop stand-up recorded live, it is interspersed with commercials, interviews and game shows written and run by George, as if you're flipping through an all-Carlin TV set. It's somewhat reminiscent of his old radio/character comedy. The language is filthy, as usual, but the concepts are more lighthearted and inoffensive than his material on "You Are All Diseased" and "Complaints and Greivances". There's more observation and wordplay than satire ... Read More Rating: - As George would say in years to comethis is the stuff he thinks about when "I'm home and the power goes out." This is Carlin at his best: The stuff he came up with then (and now) was what hooked me on his comedy. He discusses topics that no other comedian would even think to talk about (such as, "You ever noticed you don't get laid at Thanksgiving?"). It's the off-the-wall, but things we think about all the time, stuff like that which keeps you coming back for more and asking, "What else is he going to come up with?" ... Read More |
