My bro suggested George Carlin (I think ) said it's only $10.

I don't want to spend too much to be honest...$35 or so max. So hopefully I can get 2 or 3 CDs.

Perhaps there are free mp3s on the net from funny up'n comers?

I've already heard two David Cross CDs...Shut up you F'n crybaby and another one. Those were great. Already heard some Chris Rock as well...

So besides those guys, any suggestions?

 

[enjoy bell woods]

Simply the greatest.

Relentless or Rant in E-Minor by Bill Hicks

 

[Teknopathetic]

Dane Cook!

 

[impirius]

[Willco]

Dane Cook!

I second this!

 

[iceDragon7]

Google Pablo Francisco. Funny latin comedian that can do great imitations.

 

[Flynn]

Bill Hicks

 

[MC Safety]

Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner: The 2000-year-old man box set.

 

[Eminem]

Either one of Mitch Hedburg's CDs

or more importantly

Relentless or Rant in E-Minor by Bill Hicks

You have never been more right about anything, ever.


But Carlin is also a good choice.

 

[Rlan]

I've enjoyed Jim Carrey's "Unnatural Act" and Robin Williams "Reality... What a concept!"

 

[Red Scarlet]

Either one of Mitch Hedburg's CDs

Speaking of him, did he really die April 1st? Haven't heard anything about it a couple days later if it was true or not.

 

[Quadrophenic]

Phil Hendrie! You have to order them online though...there is probably a link somewhere on his site (he sells them for charity through some charity organization)

phil hendrie show

I am pretty sure 2003 and 2004 cds are 20 bucks for 2 cds full of stuff. Occasionally people post links to sites which have clips from Phil's show. Basically it consists of Phil+a amde up guest (also Phil) talking to callers who think the guest is a real person. Hilarity ensues...

Yeah, pretty sure he's dead or hanging out with Andy Kaufman

 

[MrPing1000]

yep eddie izzard and bill hicks a nice mix

 

[Dice]

Dane Cook - Harmful If Swallowed

 

[Andy787]

Eddie Izzard
Jerry Seinfeld
Mitch Hedberg
George Carlin
Eddie Murphy
Dane Cook

I respect Richard Prior for everyone he's inspired and for breaking down walls with censorship, but I never really found him funny.

 

[DJ_Tet]

That's because his jokes have been told 100 times by current comics. To listen to old standup you have to put yourself in the timeframe in which it came out.

George Carlin isn't funny to me. I hate these guys who take social issues and make jokes about them. Booooring....

I second Pablo Francisco (GREAT imitations) and of course Jerry Seinfeld. Don't forget Bill Cosby either.

 

[theREBELins]

Bob Newhart, Rowan Atkinson, or Jeff Foxworthy.

 

[pulsemyne]

Lee Evans. Best stand up comic in the UK. Utterly mad and a complete genius.

 

[MrPing1000]

Lee Evans is more visual though.

You hate comics who take social issues and make jokes about them but like Seinfeld and Cosby?

 

[Ferrio]

Lewis Black, trust me.

 

[Prospero]

I second the Richard Pryor recommendation above. The nine-disc box is the only way to get the complete album That N*****'s Crazy (the funniest album he recorded), but there's a two-disc anthology of selections from that set that's worthwhile.

 

[goodcow]

Robert Schimmel

 

[Rorschach]

Dane Cook: Harmful if Swallowed

George Carlin is good if you get his old stuff.

 

[aparisi2274]

THIS IS THE BEST OF HIS CD's:

 

[pnjtony]

Be wary of Neil Hamburger....deffinately an aquired taste and even then...NOT for everyone.

Dennis Leary, No Cure For Cancer...should be in the bargain bin by now, but most excellent.

Might wanna try some Sam Kinison. Ohh OOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[CrawfishPete]

thank me later
