Music reviews of At the Hungry i
Music Review: Vintage Mort
Rating: 5 Stars
A great slice of Mort Sahl's dry, understated political humor circa 1960. As a teenager, I saw Mort at Ohio Wesleyan University (very late 60s or very early 70s) and was intrigued by his style, which creeps up on you rather than slaps you in the face (as most modern comedy unfortunately does). I've been waiting for years for reissuance of some of Mort's classic early peformances and am glad to have this one. I hope more are on the way. I've listened to all of Mort's recordings (mostly on vinyl) and this Hungry i performance might be my favorite. (Beware, though. This and other Mort Sahl recordings require some knowledge of American history and the current events of the time.)
Description of At the Hungry i
Mort Sahl was probably the greatest political comic of all time; his biting attacks on sacred cows of the right and left (he attacked Nixon and JFK with equal gusto, which got him in hot water during the early '60s) set the stage for Lenny Bruce, George CMiscellaneous CDs
