George Carlin - "I Kinda Like It When a Lotta People Die" unreleased footage shot on the two days prior to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The footage remained unreleased until now due to the coincidental timing of the stand-up routine and the terrorist attacks.

(613 posts)The early part does not sound like George.
Wrong cadence, the voice is off, the excitement not there.
If it is George, I understand why he buried the recording.
It simply doesn't sound like George.
Later on it is obviously George, but that early part, I don't think so.
I've been a Carlin Fan for years. Don't believe this is Carlin. Poster will have to come with some proof.

(23 posts)Carlin combined whit and intellect to those things percieved to be crude and rude. I am using him as an influence in my work as a writer. Sexual purity or sexual "good taste" as it especially pertains to gender roles is the last bastion of ideas that needs to be comically assualted by someone with Carlin's comedic attitude.

The first is that despite Carlins association with the counterculture of the 60s and 70s, he was performing envelope-pushing material even earlier: It begins with his home-recorded Boston Rant, made in 1957 when he was only 20."
