Although he became best known for his drug and “dirty” humor, when he kept it clean, he was as good or better than anyone else at the time.

He could, at times, be brilliant. Some of his bits had me laughing so hard I couldn’t catch my breath.

I had the pleasure of seeing him in the very early 80’s in an old three balcony theater. Back when they served cocktails and had smoking sections. That night there was a lot of other smoking going on!

He had been on hiatus for a few years with live performance and was trying out some new material.

“My stuff” was some of that classic material. I never laughed so hard in my life!

RIP George!!
