Sam Kinison
I can’t explain how revolutionary this routine was when HBO and Rodney Dangerfield unleashed it on the world in the mid 80’s My guitar teacher basically described the routine to me in graphic detail and it still didn’t prepare me for the outrageousness of Kinison angry demented screaming truth. Did he really just say that? …
