5.0 out of 5 stars This is my passion, January 9, 1999

By A Customer

I listen to tons of Comedy Albums, I have the Complete works of Carlin Seinfeld Cosby, and Newhart (and many others too) and I have to say Carlin is the King, Jerry is close behind but he just isn't as good as Carlin. Now about this CD in particular I think it is his best. I know that in other ones like Back in Town he does some funny S--T like Do you have your own words, Or his Seat belt bash in Jammin' In New York. But this is my favorite. As one who lives for comedy I think my opinion means something in this is The Real thing,

4.0 out of 5 stars 17 year old from NJ loves Carlin, even if a bit dated, November 12, 2000

By	Richard C. Lurie (Paramus, NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This album is one of George's classics. Being a 17 year old New Jersean, I loved everything from the fourth track on. Favorite bites include, "you cant pull out of you driveway without some guy in a hat wants 50 cents!" and "when you pull up to a toll plaza, bargain with the guy!" However, the first track isn't funny unless you were alive and paying attention to politics in the 80's, and police bashing on a NJ themed album doesn't seem right after all the NJ state trooper controversies. But, all in all, its great Carlin.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not George's best, but still a great one, nonetheless., April 4, 2003

By	Nick Brozek (Madison, WI USA) - See all my reviews

"What am I doing in New Jersey" is definately not some of George's best work but it is definately a good CD. On this CD, George rants about People he can do without, drivers, Ronald Reagan and many more. This album is still a must-own for any Carlin fan.
