Customer Rating:      Summary: I miss George Carlin Comment: When George Carlin passed away, I realized how much I always loved all his 'stuff' and wondered why I did't have any of it. This is the first one I just bought, and I will eventually buy everything. I laughed all the way to work listening to George and remembering.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Carlin with an edge Comment: Those expecting Hal Sleet, the Hippy Dippy Weatherman, may not recognize this version of Carlin, but it is satiric commentary at its finest - with a higher energy level. Carlin still excels in exploiting the ludicrousness of the mundane ("Love and Regards," one of his best bits ever) and just plain silliness ("Groups and Charities," "Sports"), but this is edgier. Carlin began tapping into his anger in the '80s and it produced even sharper observations ("Battered Plants", "Missing") in rants that make Dennis Miller look like an amateur. There is more rage in such works as "Back in Town," "Jammin' in New York" and "Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics," all of which I suggest, but to those who need a softer introduction into later Carlin should try this one first.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very Funny Comment: Geroge Carlin does it again with is funny antics. Buy you'll want to listen to it again and again
Customer Rating:      Summary: Classic Carlin...at his best! Comment: The George Carlin of today, unfortunately, is not like the Carlin of yesterday. He's so political and serious now, I hardly laugh anymore. But this CD is pure Carlin. Simple, yet hysterical. The way Carlin use to be.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Playin' With Your Head Comment: If you like satirical comedy, you'll love this. The piece on sports is one of the best comedy bits I've ever heard. If you're a Carlin fan, this CD is a must have.
