It was twenty years ago today that I first heard Sam Kinison play May 31, 2008
Romance reader (Hopkinton, Ma)
I had this album on tape for almost fifteen years before it finally wore out. Sam Kinison was a comedian and professional performer. I bought the album solely because of his Wild things song - it's hysterical. After listening to that about a hundred times, I finally played the tape from start to finish. Nothing and noone is sacred. Jesus, Charles Manson, starving children - noone is spared. This album is not for children or those who are easily offended. There are a lot of crude sexual references, tons of foul language. Being a huge fan of the legendary performer's, I wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you amazon for letting me replace the long gone tape with a new cd!
Great comedian who is missed... December 28, 2007

I had the cassette tape of this "album" when it first came out. Wore the thing out playing it all through college. I still haven't taken the CD out of my car since I bought it...
Sam's views are definitely not PC, but there's too much of that nowadays. Sometimes less PC is good...
This could be considered a time capsule of the late '80s early '90s with what Sam is going off on in his act. There's even some "audience participation" recorded on this set. The song at the end isn't bad, but not the greatest either.
 not PC but funny November 20, 2006

Sam Kinison was one of a kind. A very funny comedian, good mimic with a unique style of his own. I find much of his stuff very amusing. He is good at pointing out hypocracy in our society and also sharing his pain about his life's dissapointments.
However,the material is not PC at all. There are jokes about aids, drunk driving etc... One has to not mind that kind of thing or over look it to appreciate the good stuff.

I just got this CD a couple of day's ago, and since I am young (I am 21), there are some things that are VERY OFFENSIVE, but since I love this stuff, I love IT! Though this CD is old (it came out in 1986 during the AIDS crisis which I remember very well), Sam talks about marriage (There were times where I wanted to get out of the car and run: I HATE YOU, I JUST WANT TO LIVE) , his take on religion (Jesus was never married, a woman does not let you take off for three days and you come back and say "Oh I was dead" yeah if you have ever been married, that always work's, if Jesus was married, his cross would be in the yard and he would tell his disciples 'Look guys you better stay here' he goes in there and his wife is like: "Where you BEEN? Where are those 12 F**KING LOSER'S WHO WON'T GET A JOB?), his take on women (I'm going to use women like Shake n' Bake bags), drugs, drinking and driving are VERY CONTROVERSAL, but this CD does have his controversal AIDS material but if you are easily offensive, this is NOT THE CD FOR YOU, religious? Not for you. Sam was a God in comedy and he will be missed a lot...
Filthy, sacrilegious, and brilliant! September 13, 2005
Niels Adair (Provo, Utah)
This was Sam Kinison when he hit is peak. Robin Williams called him the "Chuck Yeager of comedy" and how right he was. Sam Kinison would push the envelope and then explode over it. With his take on failed relationships, Kinison would say out loud what we all want to say in those situations. He could also anticipate the shock of the audience. He knew that what he would say next would offend them but he also knew that they would laugh out loud despite the shock value.
Be warned though. His material on such issues as women, sex, drugs, homosexuality, AIDS, religion, Christianity and drunk driving will not go over well with everyone. (Having lost a cousin to AIDS and considering that I knew an entire family that was killed by a drunk driver, I certainly do not find myself laughing at those jokes.) Despite all of that, "Have You Seen Me Lately" shows Sam Kinison at his brilliant best. He was certainly offensive but few can deny his that he was a comic genius in his own right.
