Recorded live at Circle Star Theatre, San Carlos, California in 1973.

Occupation Foole was comedian George Carlin's third release for the Little David label in 1973 and the follow up to Class Clown. While this disc as a whole lives up to Carlin's insightful brilliance, it's the least powerful of his early releases. Some of these bits, especially the revamped "Seven Dirty Words" routine, "Filthy Words," come across like after thoughts that haven't been fully developed. While many of these routines employ Carlin's universal ironic observations, some have become dated ("Raisin Rhetoric," "Black Consciousness") because of the topical nature of the subject matter. Despite these minor setbacks, Occupation Foole remains an enjoyable Carlin reissue never failing to deliver some laugh out loud observations. ~ Al Campbell

Occupation: Foole! Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Comedic genius
George Carlin is hilarious on this album. Gangs, pot, zip guns, hash pipes, seven words, farts, everything on this album is hilarious. This is earlier work, when he was the social outcast and a pain in establishments collective ass. Very funny album!
