The Essential Lenny Bruce | 
@Leftcoastzen Yes, really! ? I saw this and thought, "I've seen something about Lenny Bruce recently." ? This is a 1976 Panther Books UK edition.
I've wanted to get a book about Bruce for ages as Julian Cope uses one of his routines about the police state in his song "Soldier Blue" on his "Peggy Suicide" album, and flicking through the book I found that set included, so I'm really pleased by this acquisition ?

Leftcoastzen So cool! 2y
TrishB Love a bit of Julian ♥️ 2y
Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen It is, though! 😀 Read the first couple of chapters and, dated references and stereotypes aside, the core of what he's saying is still relevant. 2y

Bookwomble @TrishB Me, too. I've lost touch with his more recent stuff, though I did get Skellington 3 when it came out as I like sets of things. The Archdrude is still on regular rotation in my playlist, though 😊 2y
Leftcoastzen He was ahead of his time for sure.He had such a finely honed BS detector. 2y
Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen For sure. 🙂 2y
