- Here is a view of the "straight" Carlin before his radicalization during the late 60's performing one of his early popular routines....Wonderful WINO.
My parents gave me a transistor radio in 1964 for my First Communion. Every time I hear this routine, I swear this is exactly what AM radio sounded like in those days. Takes me back to listening to the radio tucked under my pillow at night!!
i wish i got to grow up in that age, truly seems like a magical time full of people that were still curious about what was possible and optimistic about the future
awesome!! I first caught this on cassette or Dr Demento - which, by that time, was already 15-20 years later. Classic bit!!
He went from sophisticated swinging’ gentleman charmer to wise old comedy wizard philosopher. There’s a reason this man is my hero.
So hard to believe this is the same man as old Carlin. The comedy is so insanely different!
So strange hearing that familiar voice come out of that unrecognizable face .. wow! Awesome upload! Thanks :)
Wonderful WINO sounds just as memorable as a make believe radio station as much as a real one I heard as a child, C-K-L-W! "The Motor City!" It was located in Windsor, Canada, but it reached Detroit listeners as well. It's peak years were 1967-1975, which were the "Big 8" era.
I well remember Mr. Carlin appearing on the vast number of '60's variety shows before his "radicalization." Wonderful WINO and the Hippy Dippy Weatherman were his signatures.
He played the Hippy-Dippy Mailman on John Davidson's summer show.
Dear Dean: I've been watching some of Carlin's later stuff, and then decided to check on this very early performance. I must say that it seems to me that his "radicalization" was to his detriment as a comedian. Sure, I love his later stuff too, but he seemed to be too hung up on making some relevant social point rather than just trying to be a funny comedian as he is here. This performance could be said to be a social critique too, but it's more in the background and not as "up front". Sadly, like many performers, it looks to me like he prostituted his talent for more bucks and more fame. Comedians don't have to have a "point" at all to be funny, Dean. They can just simply be funny as Carlin shows here. ... jkulik919@gmail.com
@@JosephKulik2016 you have that all backward ya kulak! He started as a beautiful, smart, songbird, and he got beaten down and jaded by what he saw. Here is the epitome of his inner voice that was trying to warn us: ruclips.net/video/qYuydoaQz6I/видео.html By necessity, he became increasingly direct.
@@FreerMasons Yes, he mentions how he progressed as a comic in many interviews, and it certainly had nothing to do with selling out, because he actually initially got paid far less and was in front of much smaller audiences when his act became edgier.
Al Sleet the Hippy Dippy Weatherman
the brilliance of this guy. so talented and creatively funny. he's missed.
Phenomenal. I had this on a cassette tape in the 1980s.
Same here
I loved his media spoofs.
incredible how he always has been so overwhelmingly disciplined in his acts. No stuttering, no akward silences, thousands of words ratteled down with perfect timing. you'll always be my hero George. Keep on having fun down there you old fuck.
AM RADIO ABSOLUTELY 💯 LIKE THIS THROUGH AMERICA MISS IT
Listen to his last interview, he talks about his early material,and how he was able to write it. Interesting to see him before his transition.
Yeah, sometime in the 80s he went from fun and happy to cynical and sarcastic.
@@RedwoodTheElf This performance exudes cynicism.
Carlin was always battling authority -
that's why he was discharged from the Air Force in '58.
This was such a pleasure to watch
Carlin had to know back then about the trend towards targeting the 12 - 18 market; he started out as a DJ on KXOL 1360 AM Fort Worth/Dallas back in 1959.
When I haven't heard these REALLY old routines, amazingly in joy, every line comes to me and I try to keep up with comedic GENIUS. Loved him especially when he got "hippie" and political I suppose...much missed.
You could say he was always like that, maybe just as he got older he was tired of seeing the corruptness of the government and all the hate in the world.
When I was working in radio in Dallas, one of our sales managers had previously been a disc jockey on KXOL in Fort Worth back in the '50s/early '60s. When he was there working the 9 PM - Midnight shift, the guy he followed who was doing the 6-9 PM shift was none other than George Carlin. My friend said he would pick up dinner and eat it in the newsroom where he could turn up the program feed so he could listen to Carlin while eating dinner. He said he was just as funny on the air.
So much talent
The very first bit of his I memorized
Patty and the Pickets!😊

WEZE Boston
@@mikehemeon2473 but, Wonderful Wheezy just didn't have the right ring.
@@mikehemeon2473 and Shreveport before Boston.
the one and only
God damn, he really isn't the same person without a beard.
I have one of his albums and it's the one with this skit.
I have all of them and all the HBO specials. He did an update of this routine later, with a new DJ, Scott Lang.
Can you imagine turning on network TV in 2022 and seeing shows like this instead of show after show with shooting and endless violence?

Ah. Jimmy Durante. Worse for wear, but, still, America's musical good guy.
My style was partly impressed by his, though the exigencies of playing an upright piano, facing the wall, singing over my shoulder to a rowdy crowd, played the major part in the development of a sort of one man band Vaudeville Meme that most live performance acoustic pianists know well. That's the sort of formative experience that creates a style; playing piano, while standing up, the better to deliver your total package so to speak) to your half seen audience. Jerry Lee Lewis is another performer famous for the same meme. The other band members, and/or solo acts, get to see the audience directly, and react to their "vibe" (which does not always go well for them), but a pianist with his back to the room has a unique mountain to climb to create a rapport with his or her audience. We have to bring our "A" game every time.
Which is part of what makes us so cool. ;-)
Teenagers all the same guys in a jar , you just might hear something like the following we got stacks of stacks of wax and wax, 700 1:56 a great new group from England 2:00 my baby's dead, got hit by a train 02:34 this one hasn't even been released yet and it's number one on the charts this week, Russia 3:44 moving higher every week, Nick , Ralph 4:03 Jenny another big one for you kids will move right along you're digging that big wino sound wonderful in Death Valley 4:55 who cares
Carlin didn't need to grow his hair long. Rowan and Martin and the Smothers Brothers had big careers while wearing stylish suits.
@Danny Silverman "Say Goodnight, Dick." I rest my case.
They also spent a lot of time fighting the networks over the clean-cut image. Things were changing, and network TV didn't want to go along with it until they started losing viewers.
Great stuff...but the laugh track supplementing the real laughs seems unnecessary
