George Carlin being arrested for violating wisconsin's obscenity laws after performing the controversial routine "Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television" May 27th 1972 [1963x1575]
I got this album for my father, we are listening laughing, my mother doesn't get it, falls asleep on the couch. We he gets to the 7 words routine she jumps up out of what we thought was a sound sleep and yells "what the hell is this"? Remember this was 1972-74.
I appreciate that George Carlin kept evolving throughout his career. From the conventional short-hair days in a team with Jack Burns, to his counterculture freak days, to his angry curmudgeon days. The one constant was his fascination with the nuances of the English language.
