I know. But i never had any Lenny Bruce albums, so I'm not familiar with them even though I like him. same thing with Monty Python. I've heard some of their albums but I'm not familiar enough with them to remember which is which.
Anything from George Carlin is phenomenal. I think he's the greatest of all time. Smarter, quicker, sharper, more well structured, more relateble and agreeable than almost any other comic I've encountered.
My favorite CD release from him is probably Jammin' In New York.
I actually wondered if your avatar was Carlin? Looks like a younger pic, but too small to be for sure.
Along with Carlin, I really like Louis CK and Aziz Ansari. They have their shortfalls, but really like most of the content. Carlin... I haven't even seen half of what he did, but from what i have seen, there's almost never a dull moment - so agreed.
I do have to give it to Louis CK's Bacon Theater to really getting me into comedy.

It's totally younger George Carlin. It looks like from the late '70s around when he did the performance at USC. Yes, back when edgy comedians performed on college campuses. Those were the days. It probably wouldn't happen today.
I also like the old school comedy in addition to newer hipper stuff. I know it's not very cool but actually these people were hysterically funny.
I love these albums: all from the 1960s
Bob Newhart. The Button-down Mind of Bob Newhart
Moms Mabley. I Like em Young, Live at Sing Sing
Jonathan Winters. The Wonderful world of Jonathan Winters
Joan Rivers. Next-to-last Joan Rivers album
Joan Rivers. What Becomes a Semi-Legend Most?
Bill Cosby. I Started out as a Child
Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks. 2000 and Thirteen
Phyllis Diller The Beautiful Phyllis Diller

Tis indeed George Carlin. And yep, probably from the mid to late 70's. I suppose I'm still young enough to have "heroes" and he's one of them. _________________ Attention all planets of the solar federation: We have assumed control.

Yup - a lot of colleges aren't breading grounds for actually thinking anymore.
