4.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely, downright, on the floor laughing....hilarious!, June 13, 2000

This review is from: DRUNK WITH POWER (Audio CD)

Longtime fans of Margaret Cho's have known her comedy routine and act well before mainstream America did. Did Cho conform to fit in with mainstream America....Hell no! Hell hath no fury until they listen to Cho.

Taking bits and pieces of her life and everyday routine things, Cho is able to construct them in a manner that, quite honestly, is fitting and appropriate. Her take on dating, Asian-Americans, her GPA, making movies, taking drugs, and yep the big one...SEX are hilarious. Her battle with weight and her short lived situation comedy, All-American Girl are all captured here for your listening pleasures! Unwind, relax, sit down, and play along!

If you haven't seen Cho live, then this is what you are missing. Captured right here in one easy to reach place, this CD will surely cure and afternoon blues!

4.0 out of 5 stars I love her, but..., March 31, 2004

This review is from: DRUNK WITH POWER (Audio CD)

Basically, this was a first attempt for Margaret with her stand up.
All of her jokes on this CD are funny, yes, but are re-vamped in her later 3 CD's: I'm The..., Notorious..., and Revolution.
I would reccomend buying one of these three instead.

For example, Gwen, who washes Margaret *down there* is portrayed as a tiny southern woman on this CD, not the crazy, outrageous, drag-queen-like woman she is on I'm the One That I Want.

Basically, you could pass this CD up for Margaret's other work and not miss much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Boost for Asians, April 17, 2000

This review is from: DRUNK WITH POWER (Audio CD)

Very few Asians would have accomplished what Margaret have in the world of Stand-ups. I enjoyed the album very much and it showed her spontaneity with the audience. Well done and keep it up!
