Editorial Reviews

Recorded two months prior to his death, this album contains nearly forty minutes of previously unreleased stand-up material. It pulses with Mitch's inimitable wit and spirit, it's a document of a comedy master, and it's a treat for all those who were afraid they'd never get to hear another great Hedberg joke.

5.0 out of 5 stars A welcome voice from the past, September 9, 2008

This review is from: Do You Believe in Gosh? (Audio CD)

Newcomers to Mitch Hedberg's work and fans of wonderfully random inspired one-liner comedy will love this album.

Those others of us such as myself who have teased out all of his possible albums, That 70's Show appearances, Jimmy Johns commercials and internet-pressed botlegs will also love this album, being the dedicated won-over souls that we are.

Despite a fair deal of "old" material on this album (the odd one-liner that will be familiar, but a classic) there's enough new material and random off-hand banter that was Mitch's befuddled trademark to sustain it.

The album will serve to remind every fan of just how much this unique comedian, who really didn't just entertain but make people happy, is and will be missed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rough draft of what was to be another great comedy album, September 13, 2008

I am big fan of Mr. Hedberg. The album material is very honest about its content that it is a rough draft. It is 39 minutes long. Though the material is not all good, it is a pleasure to hear him again with almost all new material. I especially enjoyed aspects of its "rough draftness", how he handled hecklers (which is a real highlight of the album) how some of his jokes bombed but how he recovers with wit and honesty. There is a great deal of his material that is as good as his previous stuff and overall I am glad I have this.

I saw Mitch live two times shortly before his early death. I was planning on seeing him again at a show scheduled two months after his death. I would have seen him way more had I known what was going to happen. This CD is awesome! Mitch was at his best when his material did not work, and most of this was a rough draft so a lot of it didn't work. He was the man when it came to admitting these kinds of things. I only remember one joke he told at a show I saw that I wish had made it on this set. I would go into a description of it but it just isn't funny without hearing Mitch tell it himself. Maybe there are some other recordings out there that can be pieced together so it can see the light of day. Anyhow, this cd is awesome and should be purchased by any even mild Mitch Hedberg fan.
