Groundbreaking material

I bought this album when I was in eighth grade, and 12 years later, even though I definitely gravitate towards bluer comedy, this is still a record I frequently dust off and give a spin. Tons of memorable material. Ralph Jameson is a hilariously random "sketchy" sort of bit with no real context or explanation on the album, and shows a style of comedy that I haven't seen since. And Pet Rhinoceros is a bit that almost every comedian has done some variation of (the old do-something-crazy-to-get-a-reaction-out-of-people bit). This is one of the greatest american comedy albums and belongs in every stand-up lovers collection.
