Search - :: The Best Of Lesbian Comedy Vol. 1

Provides a terrific cross-section of today's lesbian comics

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Comprises segments from 10 different comics or groups. Includes the well known (Lea DeLaria, Kate Clinton) as well as some who have made no recordings that I know of, like Georgia Ragsdale and Sara Cytron. The best are the surprises, comics I had never heard of before who turn out to be really funny: Vickie Shaw, Amy Boyd, Lacie Harmon. My only negatives (and the reasons I didn't give the album five stars): Some of the material is old; Clinton's routine, for example, comes from a 1991 performance -- ridiculous for a 1997 album. Also, no Suzanne Westenhoefer, which makes no sense whatever."
