    Sad day indeed…
    I remember purchasing “Class Clown” in early 1973. His humor went well with the drugs I was becoming involved with, and the truth of his humor struck me deep.
    “I used to be Irish Catholic, now I’m an American; you know, you grow” hit me like a hammer. Maybe there was more to it than what my parents were admitting…
    Cool clip, thanks!

    Thanks for the clip.
    I met George in the early 80’s. He was very cool.
    He helped elevate stand-up comedy in the 60’s.
    And his most recent performance “It’s Bad For You” is incredible material for a 70 year old man.

    RIP G-e-o-r-g-e
