George Carlin - Last Words (audiobook) torrent

Disc 1 encoded at 128k with iTunes, disc 2 - 5 encoded at 192k with EAC in Secure Mode. I know that's unnecessary for an audiobook, but I do loathe when people encode them at 32-48 kbps and you get all these nasty compression artifacts....

here's the blurb straight from the jacket:

As one of America's most pre-eminent comedians, with 50 years worth of material and appearances on the international comedy circuit, George Carlin saw it all and made fun of most of it. Blending his signature acerbic humor with never before told stories from his own life, Last Words is part comedy routine, part reflection, and all original. Written with bestselling author Tony Hendra, Last Words is the story of the man behind some of the most seminal comedy and commentary of the last century. Carlin's journey to stardom began in the rough and tumble neighborhoods of New York in the 1940s and '50s, where class and culture wars planted the seeds for some of his earliest material. Carlin describes his major influences as an up and coming comic, talking about the origins of some of his most famous stand up routines including the notorious Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television. Sparing no detail, Carlin describes his life and career, discussing his own battle with substance abuse, his turbulent relationships with his family, and the unique worldview that informed so much of his stand up. From the high points on stage to the low points few knew about, read by his brother Patrick Carlin, Last Words is George Carlin's life told with the same unblinking honesty that defined his comedy and made him one of the best loved comedians in American history.

If you like it, seed it! I think a lot of us will enjoy this deeper look at a comic gone all too soon from us.
